The Norwegian Lundehund, also known as the Puffin Dog, is a rare and unique breed of dog originating from the remote islands of Norway. The Lundehund is known for its unusual anatomy, which includes six toes on each foot, a flexible neck that can bend backward and touch the spine, and the ability to close its ears to protect against dirt and water when digging.
These traits were developed over time to help the Lundehund hunt puffins, a small sea bird, in their cliff-side nesting areas. Today, the breed is prized for its intelligence, agility, and affectionate nature, but due to its small population size, it is considered to be at risk of extinction.

Boxer dog they have a cool history
It was also the basis vreed for the most proficient dog in the world. Their small size and nose is simol unmatched
Salt water crocodile
Damn, this breed is equipped with superpowers
Never underestimate the power of the T-POSE!
@@generaleerelativity9524
😅😂😂
Not really when they're all inbred
Minus the six toes, I’d say you can find most of these on a base model cat
@@th3mllkm4n66 most cats are assholes tjough
My relatives had one when I was little
I always thought the Extra toes where something special just to that dog, not the entire breed 😂
This is hilarious 😂
Lol 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤷♂️
I read your profile name as part of the actual text of your comment lol
So like… does this apply to cat breeds too? Or is it just called a genetic defect like my friend says about his cat? It’s got 6 claws on his front paw and he uses them all, lil bastard 😂
They were used to hunt puffing eggs - they are very good at picking up and carying eggs without breaking them. They are used at our local airport in the spring to remove nests from the runway area :)
oh that is so adorable
that's quite sad, our puffin population is going down. we used to have so many more of these birds and dogs.
The puffin dog is not used to hunt puffins anymore - the puffin is a protected species in Norway.
It is a probably a complicated problem why the puffin is in decline - but the most probable culprits are climate change and over fishing.
yes i know it's not the dogs, we don't have those in orkney. i'm just commenting on it's sad we're losing so many species.
@@user-ln2go4xp6d it is sad 😞
How unusual! They seem to be well equipped to be a search and rescue dog! With their ability to traverse uneven terrain, get into small places and close their ears, I’m wondering how cooperative they would be to search collapsed buildings for survivors?
Being working dogs, I imagine they are trainable, but I'm not sure how cooperative they'd be haha
@@Lithic.flakes They were developed specifically for hunting. So they're trainable and cooperative
I thought the same! They have everything they need to be perfect rescue dogs
@@KayleeVRC Of course! I'm just thinking of a couple of specific dog breeds that are a little stubborn, can't always be sure
Dude, that's a great idea.
They look adorable, but it also sounds like each time a puppy was born with some weird trait, breeders were like "that's cool, let's add that in". 🤣
It's not a bug. It's a feature.
- Lundhund breeders, probably
@@latonyanewsome0 to be fair, they’re rarer and not overbred. Probably have very few health issues. But every dog, even labs were bred like that. Just how it is.
Yeah why not? It’s not like an extra toe is a health issue, plus it was done for functionality so they have better grip, not for aesthetics like actual overbred dogs
@@Icetea-2000 yeah, much better than pugs for example who can barely breathe but people keep breeding them “cause they’re cute”
@@tourmii In my country they made a law where its prohibited to breed with animals like pugs and even certain cats who suffer because of their aesthetics. Yet i still see them being bred and kept by lots of owners... :/
“They can do much more than that” shows them indeed, doing much more than that
After every point I was more and more impressed, by the end I was like “WHAT CAN’T THEY DO?!”
They can do French Smooches
I literally went straight to the comments for that one sentence
@@BigPurp9 I'd say math, but I think that is just a matter of time before they manage to do it.
this would be a great dog to breed with the Norwegian Elkhound, the sled dog
I’m Norwegian, and there’s not too few of them left, they’re considered saved in Norway. I see them pretty often
Well, they are not fully saved yet. We have a project going on to save them. I have two of the project dogs one B1 and a B2 (mix between lundehund and buhund) father and son
The only doggo on the block that can T-POSE the other dogs out of the way....
They are like a love child of a jack russel and husky
You'd be surprised what that actually looks like because it's nothing like one of these dogs 😂
@@lilskipper4683 sounds like you know this personally 😂❤, got a pic?😊
I can totally see that! And add in some jackal, maned wolf, or Tasmanian Tiger, for the “weird adaptations” aspect! 😄
A Jack Rusky, if you will.
That's a lot of unique physiological adaptations in response to their environment. Especially the control they have of their ears!
It's purposely bred into them.
@@hevnervals The extra toes? 👀
No such thing here. These were mutations bread into em by humans
@@ne9835 Yeah
Right??? 😊💗
Can you imagine your dog having a fit and every time you try to speak they just close their ears LMAO
oh i would like to see that, that would make a good meme for sure 😁
Literally a super dog. It wouldn’t have a problem turning around in a passage way. Wouldn’t have to walk backwards or worry ab getting an ear infection. Definitely not proned to falling. The flexibility probably gives it al of advantages in a pursuit as well
Adorable dogs full of surprises
yes🐶
With a name like Lundhund, youre already setting the bar sky high
They look like a Shiba inu's awkward cousin, and I love them
That’s just like my babies I’ve got two beautiful berman cats and they were nearly wiped out in WW2 due to their place of origin being severely bombed and only a few lucky ones survived and now are rebounding from that horrific past I hope these little angels are also rebounding (no pun intended) and finding love again with their own families
I am looking for a breeder, Bermans evidently are a good fit for my family after doing some research. They are beautiful too!
@@carolyntalbot947 I have had 2 sets of Birman the first we’re a girl and boy I got when I was about 4-5yrs old I can verify they are great pets for families with children my current two the breeder specifically bred for there nature she retired after my girls were born so they are from her final litter. Both times I got my fluff balls in NZ
@@carolyntalbot947 Idk if it helps, but when I officially went searching for my perfect cat breed (Siberians; they're all I can own because of allergies), I started with the CFA (Cat Fanciers Association) breeder's directory. TICA (The International Cat Association) is a good one, too. The breeder I went with was one I found through the CFA, but also approved by TICA. Just good starting places!
This dog has more features than an apple watch!
A dog thats agile as a cat?
I think i liked this
This mf got more abilities than a Pokémon
These dogs are the most unique dogs I've genuinely ever seen so far
Huh, so they are rolling out the Dog 2.0 update already? Neat!
Impressive dog
These small dogs look like a wolf and fox got busy. It's honestly cute and beautiful
And inbred.
It's interesting that Norwegian forest cats also have an extra toe.
The dogs AND the cats? What, do the Norwegian humans have extra toes too?
It's for gripping the axe. 😆 Why else would Vikings give their animals thumbs?
dude this dog maxed out all it's stats
A truly amazing breed totally adapted to their environment. And cute, too! It would be a crime to lose them.
You mean bread for certain purposes. Not "adapted to their environment."
@MyDearGhoul if you want to correct someone, at least use correct spelling BRED
@@renateccawthern3350 your original comment has a sentence that starts with the word "and"
@@joseveloz388But coordinating conjunctions can absolutely be used to start complete sentences. What makes it a fragment is the lack of subject, not the "and" at the start. And, unlike misspelling "bred" as "bread", it doesn't change the meaning at all. Why fret over the grammar of a TH-cam comment when the message is still clear?
Oh thank you for the correction and forgive my ignorance though isn't the statement above counterintuitive if the message was clear?
Never knew this dog existed. Very cool, I hope they do well bringing this breed back!
One of the few breads that actually make sense to me
These guys are awesome! In high school in my animal science class we had to do an assignment on a dog breed and these are the guys I ended up doing it onl
Love when One Minute Animals uploads!!
The animals are so cute and interesting
So basically these fuzz balls are the perfect balance of adorable as all hell and actual versatility? Hell yeah.
These have to be the coolest lil dogs I have ever seen
flexible dog that climbed a lot....
that's a cat
Some of the coolest dogs ever
That dog is literally built different 😂
Very interesting dogs. I do hope they make a huge come back. Never heard of them before but I love to hear about different dog breeds. Also beautiful dogs. Happy trails to you. God bless.
This would be a perfect backpacking companion!
They are really cute too.
This dog breed is more than special, it is wholey unique on its own (idk a better way to spell it)
Wholly but we knew what you meant! 😊
We have alot of em here in Norway ❤
I personally envy you: they’re adorable❣️
A bonus toe for an extra GOOD BOI! God knew what he was doing! 🐕🐾🙏🏻
if i ever have this good boyo, i'll name it toesty bcause it has extra toes and the color resembles a toasted bread
There was a very kind old man in my town that had one of these when I was younger. It was so much fun to play it, such a friendly dog that loved kids. The funniest part about them was that the owner had 6 toes on his feet as well, so we kids used to joke with him that they were made for each other. Not in a mean way of course, we found it adorable. But we did wonder if it made shopping for shoes harder, being the kids we were 😂
So basically it’s the lost character from the X-men. Got it 👌🏾
They are adorable. (:
Hello AshleyHere from PCB.
Yes they are a very unique and cute dog
Isn't it wonderful how nature will adapt an animal for its surroundings. Like all those extra toes
Wow finally a breed with real functional features without decorative mutilations! Love it
I think you meant to call them “the ultimate hunter” lol these dogs are so cool!
Whelp this is going on my long long list of dog breeds I want
They are obsessed with hunting birds. Nothing else on their minds.
@@SIC647 and?
@@xccrazy91
If you have pet birds choose a different breed
@@BlackStar-hy1iy I don’t have a pet bird 🙄
It’s really cool how they’ve adapted for their region.
When you thought you pulled an Epic, but it's really a Legendary.
Ohh Look at his Paws! Beautiful. Breed...🧡🌺💛
Such a unique breed of dog. Thanks for explaining a bit!
Most dog breeds are bred for cuteness. This one needs to be bred like a Swiss army knife! Wow!
“actually, they can do much more than that” *chews on each other’s faces*
Could you do one about the Swedish vallhund?
No matter what doggies look like they will always love you
That dog is freaking magical
The Spiderman of dogs with that rock grabbing action and mobility.
Never knew these things existed and glad I do now.
I never thought entire breeds of dogs could go extinct, I'm glad we're saving these good boys
There are actually many breeds. Here in Greece we have the Greek shepherd which is protected by wildlife and ecological protection organization Arcturos. Not allowed to be owned by people anymore.
Only given by the organization to some farmers to keep the breed characteristics the same
@@yameteesenpaii2181 omg I just looked at some pictures they're such floofy woofers 🥺 love shepherd breeds
Can you do the Epagneul Breton as well? I’d love to see a video about my dear frenchies
This sounds like a dog every mountaineer needs
That's amazing. I would never have guessed that something like extra toes could be a breed specific thing. I always thought of that as a random harmless mutation that could occasionally happen to dogs and cats, but I guess it makes sense it could end up embedded in a breed's genetic code
Can you please talk about a corig and husky mix? I subbed! I lov your videos!! ❤❤
I have Ehlers-Danlos and love that this dog’s hypermobility is considered a feature. lol
They also have the ability to be absolutely 100 percent adorable
First
Cute puppy
Why so many toes? Why does their head do that? Chernobyl?
1+2) likely an evolutionary trait developed from their ancestors hunting burrowing animals such as small foxes and rabbits, the flexibility would allow them to navigate prey animal’s tunnels more easily
3) what? They’re Norwegian and Chernobyl is in Ukraine, the two areas are like a fifth of the globe away from each other, why would Chernobyl have any effect on them?
Despite having meme in your name, you really can't take a joke. Also, the effects of chernobyl spread throughout Europe. Surprisingly, radiation doesn't stop at country boarders
@@AmericaIsACountry First; ‘Borders’ not ‘boarders’.
Second; Whilst Chernobyl was a disaster in every capacity, the most mutagenic of its effects is just shortening the lifespan of the local animal population, not giving magic and superpower to people and animals the world over.
Third; There is no way someone other than yourself could’ve know you were trying to make a joke, there was no build up, there was no previous comment to relate the joke to, there was nothing but the addition of ‘Chernobyl’ and the expectation that everyone who read your comment was a telepath so that they would be able to read your mind and discern your intention for this comment. Don’t try to act snooty to me when you can’t even tell a single joke properly.
@A very possible Memelord the only people who don't understand the joke are boomers like you who think putting memelord in their name will make them cool and hip with the kids. Also, did you not read my comment? It list things that other animals, canines included, normally don't have or aren't able to do. It's a well-known meme to say that animals with extra arms or legs or any other unnatural mutations are from chernobyl. I know that the dog with the extra toes and ability to turn its head completely behind it is an evolutionary trait, but it's still unusual compared to other animals
@A very possible Memelord also the cloud of radiation caused by chernobyl did actually reach Norway, I know geography may be hard for you, so here's a way you can remember it, Norway is in europe, Ukraine is in europe, Norway is closer to Ukraine than it is to almost every other country in the world outside of europe. Your welcome 😊
Okay so I’m learning that a dog has six toes as a natural trait. Their salon bill is probably expensive af
No salon bills if you learn to do it yourself.
Norwegian elghund is gorgeous too, please do an episode on them
They’re also SO FREAKING CUTE
My Shih Tzu/Jack Russell (we think) has a freaky flexible neck. She can be laying on the floor and lay the back of her head on her back to look at you. I’ve always wanted to see an x-ray of her neck to see if there is any deformation. She’s like an owl.
How adorable can you get!
It’s such a cutie pie, but I can’t get over how cute the name is lundehunde
They were used to collect young puffins in the autumn, when the fledglings were leaving the nests. Specifically, they collected the ones that didn’t quite get to the ocean when diving out of the nest, but instead knocked themselves out on the mountainside.
Look at those toe beans!! Heckin cute!
Seeing one of these good babies climbing rocks is hilarious to me.
That dog hanging on for dear life on the two rocks in funny asf☠️
Extra toes, extra wiggly ears, extra stretchy, and double extra good boi
I have never heard of this breed, and now i want one, SUCH A FLEXY BOI
Lundihundie! So adorable!
Those are some serious genetics that must be preserved. ❤
those traits are amazing. i can't believe such a versitile breed is having such low numbers
Sounds like a fabulously talented breed! Cute, too!
"They can do much more than that"
My reaction: Oh my
“Who needs thumbs when I got EXTRA TOES???”
They're gorgeous!!!
Damn this dog has some of most interesting adaptations I’ve seen in a canine
They're absolutely gorgeous and adorable 😍
the dog is like a video game character that is insanely op but the devs refuse to nerf it.
So, basically, the perfect dog.
So basically adorable lap size rubber doggo, I'm sold.
I’ve never seen anything like it before! Fascination!
It’s also adorable!
“...six toes? Is that a glitch?”
“Not if me make it a feature!!”
It's such a derp!! Squeal!!!❤
What a beautiful fur baby
Sounds like one of the coolest breeds around I wish dogs were bred for useful characteristics rather than just looks
This dog breed is amazingly cool!
They are gorgeous.
