It's an interesting diet this breed needs. Basically small frozen scraps, but very rich in content. Their digestive systems evolved as nomads north of the Arctic Circle and know nothing else, so a bit of care needs to be taken. His body will do a lot with the vital scraps of tundra animals, and doesn't know how to handle big foreign diets which make him unenergetic and unwell after a few meals.
Tonight's menu is sheep and beef tripe—their organs go well, but their meat and fat doesn't.
Frozen salmon cuts—these dogs know fish as well as reindeer and love frozen meet. They extract all the goods from them.
And a rabbit foot—Fur and bone is common in their diet and helps clean. They can start to poop bad without fur fibre.
One of the more tame dishes considering the other weird off cuts of bits and pieces he gets. Thought some may find it interesting for a bit of an unusual breed outside of Finland.
Edit: And yeah, the photo makes the meal look big and him small. But he's 20kg and that dish is about 3/4 a banana in diameter.
Immediately thought of Pierces dad screaming at Britta about being a Laplander...
Haha, Finnish Lapphund sounds fancy to English-speakers, but it is Findland > Lapland > Dog.in translation
Yeah.
There's an American show Community, and it's probably the only reason any American knows Lapland = Finland

He's like the Abed of racism
Abed? I think you mean brown Jamie Lee Curtis.
This is amazing!
We've got both Michael Jackson's!
