It is said: “Nature created this breed. He was made by the mountains and wind.” He is small, lively dog whose sparkling personality and quicksilver intelligence are reflected in the vibrant expression of his unique triangular head and windswept face. He is a superb athlete, with a beautiful, flowing gait that “shaves the earth.” His high energy and intelligent, cunning, mischievous attitude show that he is always on alert, and ready for action.
