Kromfohrländer -what's that?

"Kromfohrländer is one of the newest German dog breeds (registered in 1955) and it is quite rare in Finland. Kromfohrländer is a medium-sized, very intelligent and active companion and housedog." says text in official website of the Finnish Breed Association for Kromfohrländer. KLIK!



Kromis are quite interesting dogs. Very beautiful but not so easy to handle with. They are truly familydogs and love their own family. Problem is that there are other people in world too. So you need to learn to be a part of this outside world too. In Finland we call this "socialization".

Kromis have some breed diseases like epilepsy, digital hyperkeratose
and hereditary cataract. Some info in German.


Many kromfohländers compete in agility and are very good at it. They are fast and like to jump. Even if it isn't quite necessary.
