The Finnish Spitz is known to be a very intelligent dog that boasts well developed senses. As such they are very quick to pick up on things which includes the good and the bad. They do, however, boast a bit of an independent streak which can become apparent if these dogs are not well trained from a young enough age. With this said, in the right hands and with a sympathetic owner, the Finnish Spitz is a quick learner and they have been known to excel at all sorts of canine sports which includes things like agility and obedience competitions.
