Purely bred a companion dog the Kromfohrlander is well adapted to apartment living.  With its abilities as  a watchdog and bodyguard this particular breed is very much appreciated by owners looking for a little piece of mind.

It has excellent hearing and will react to the smallest of noise, thereby announcing with banner, any intruder who enters its domain.

The breed is very lively and obedient. And the loyalty of this dog compares to no other and will fight to the end to protect its owners.

The Kromfohrlander was developed in the early nineteenth century but not breeds that contributed to it formation are recorded anywhere.

The description of this breed is as follows:

1) All are white with light chestnut markings; some are black.

2) The type of hair on this little fellow runs from coarse short to coarse long both very easy to manage.

3) Weight is usually around 26 pounds with the height at about 15 to 18 inches.

4) It has a black nose and oval eyes with triangular ears that lie flat to the head.

5) The neck is slightly arched and they have a scissor to pincer like bite, only used when thoroughly antagonized.

Formiable as this breed can become with strangers, its temperament is still very well  suited for a loving family, looking for a life long companion and dutiful protector.
