Unusual dog breeds, though not always American Kennel Club, or AKC, recognized, are not simply mongrels or inferior dogs. Many have long histories and characteristics that set them apart from the breeds most see every day. This is, in itself, a trait that makes them quite desirable to some potential dog owners.

Norwegian lundehund (Norway)

Topping the list, this unusual dog breed has been called "puffer dog" for its puffin hunting ability. What makes this dog breed excel at hunting puffins over their craggy nesting sites are some very odd characteristics. It has six or more toes on each foot, giving the dog a better grip. The extra toes are not what makes this an unusual dog breed because they present as double hanging dew claws. This is a "flaw" some fanciers of other breeds remove from their puppies. What is unusual about this breed is the flexible neck. It can bend all the way back to touch forehead to spine. This allows the dog out of tricky spots, especially among craggy rock formations. Another assist in tight spots are the shoulder joints. This unusual dog breed can stretch its front legs well out to either side. Protecting its ears from dirt and spray is the ability to close the ear canal at will. The AKC does not recognize this breed.
