The Dutch Smoushond is a small dog breed that originated in Holland in the 19th century. These dogs have a long muzzle, large eyes and small ears. They come in a variety of colors, but are most commonly found in black or brown.
Dutch Smoushonds are very active and energetic. They love to run and play with toys, and also participate in various competitions. These dogs are very loyal to their owners and ready to protect them.
However, despite their appearance, Dutch Smaushounds are not decorative dogs. They are great for living in apartments or houses if they are properly educated and trained.
