In care, these are rather unpretentious animals. The maximum that is required of you is infrequent washing as needed, combing once a week (more often during the shedding period), and minimal ear care. You should also watch the claws. And don’t forget about regular flea and tick treatment. But most of these recommendations are relevant for all breeds, so we can say that the Icelandic dog does not need specific care – after all, a Viking dog!
