Craig petting Agisdor, with Harald's permission, of course! Greenland dogs initially came from Siberia and migrated with the Thule people to Greenland. They are viewed as draught animals rather than pets, and they have not been much further domesticated than they were a thousand years ago. They are valued for their strength and endurance. Adaptations to the harsh climate allow them to survive comfortably in the elements, without doghouses or even straw bedding. They are strong-willed and are not always compliant. The overall population of these dogs in Greenland is around 15,000. Other dog breeds are prohibited in some parts of Greenland (including East Greenland) to prevent dilution of the breed.
