Summer heat can become dangerous for dogs far faster than many people realize. Heat stroke and dehydration are true medical emergencies, and they often happen during everyday activities like walks, dock days, hikes, patio outings, sporting events, or boat rides.

Dogs do not cool themselves the same way humans do, and certain breeds — especially brachycephalic breeds, puppies, seniors, double-coated dogs, and overweight dogs — are at even greater risk in warm or humid weather.

Knowing the warning signs, recognizing risky situations, and taking preventative steps can save a life. Shade, hydration, rest breaks, and avoiding peak heat hours are some of the simplest and most effective ways to keep our dogs safe throughout the summer months.

Swipe through to learn the signs of dehydration and heat stroke, what to do in an emergency, and how to help your dog stay safe this summer. ☀️🐾

The Upper East Side litter ✨

We are so excited to finally share Blair and Kopi’s upcoming litter with everyone. This pairing has been one we’ve been looking forward to, and we are incredibly grateful to Karin at Kyon Kennels for allowing us the opportunity to breed Kopi to Blair.

These puppies are expected to be beautiful representatives of the Norwegian Buhund breed, with wonderful temperaments, structure, and personalities. We cannot wait to watch them grow, develop, and begin making their mark on the world.

Stay tuned as we share more updates on this very special litter 💛

Welcoming our Norwegian Buhund puppies into the world 🤍

This litter’s arrival threw us a bit of a curveball, as Blair ultimately required an emergency C-section. While it was a stressful weekend for everyone involved, we are incredibly relieved and grateful to share that both mom and puppies are doing wonderfully. The puppies are gaining consistently every day, and Blair is already proving to be an exceptional mother.

We truly cannot thank Dr. Melanie at Animal Hospital enough for once again coming to our rescue. Having a veterinarian available to our breeding program who is not only incredibly capable, but also willing to be there for us during emergencies — especially on weekends — means more than words can say.

Keeping with Blair’s Gossip Girl inspiration, this litter needed an Upper East Side theme ✨

Meet:
🤍 Madison
🤍 York

We are so excited to share their journey with you all this spring. Follow along for puppy updates, milestones, and adventures ahead 🐾

Meet Blair — our stunning spring mama and the girl behind the name Blair Waldorf inspired “Arcane Riverhund’s Queen B XOXO.”

Much like the character she was named after, Blair is fiery, confident, intelligent, and impossible not to fall in love with. But behind that bold personality is one of the sweetest, most devoted companions you could ask for. She’s the kind of dog that’s ready for every adventure, eager to work, always by your side, and then somehow transforms into the ultimate cuddle bug the moment the day slows down. Her signature neck snuggles — where she tucks her face right into you— are enough to melt absolutely anyone.

Blair truly represents everything we strive for in our program: beauty, brains, athleticism, trainability, with a very loving personality. She’s the type of dog that can keep up with an active lifestyle while still being your best friend at the end of the day.

We are beyond excited for this special litter and can’t wait to watch little pieces of Blair shine through in her puppies. If you’ve been looking for a confident, affectionate, adventure-ready companion with an amazing temperament, this is a litter you’ll want to follow closely. ✨

Double-coated breeds are designed by nature to regulate temperature efficiently in both hot and cold weather. Their coat works as an insulation system — helping keep them warm in winter and cool in summer. Every layer serves a purpose.

Shaving a double-coated dog can disrupt this natural temperature regulation, damage coat texture, and impact how the coat grows back. Instead of shaving, proper coat maintenance is key. Regular brushing and seasonal blow-outs help remove impacted undercoat so air can properly circulate through the coat as intended.

An unmaintained, impacted coat cannot regulate temperature effectively. Working with your groomer to maintain the coat properly is very important in helping these breeds stay comfortable and healthy year-round. 🐾

We’re so excited to finally share Sparrow’s whelping journey with all of you 🤍

From the very beginning, so many of you have followed along with the ups, downs, worries, and excitement surrounding this special singleton litter — and we’re incredibly grateful to have such a supportive community to share these moments with.

Watching Sparrow bring her baby safely into the world and step so naturally into motherhood has been such an emotional and unforgettable experience for us. While a singleton was never the outcome we had hoped for, we’re so thankful for a healthy mom and thriving little one.

Thank you for being part of this journey with us and for loving this little puppy already as much as we do. We can’t wait to continue sharing their story with you ✨

Welcome to the world, little one 🤍

Sparrow welcomed a singleton puppy, and we are happy to share that both mom and baby are doing wonderfully. As a first-time mom, Sparrow has taken to motherhood so naturally — calm, attentive, and absolutely devoted to her puppy already.

While singleton litters are never the outcome we hope for in a breeding program, sometimes nature has its own plans, and this is simply how things worked out this time around. We are grateful for a healthy mama and thriving puppy, and we’re looking forward to watching this special little one grow.

At this time, this puppy is not available.

If winter is your season, this might be your breed. ❄️
The Norwegian Buhund was made for snow days, mountain air, and evenings by the fire. Athletic enough to keep up. Loyal enough to never leave your side.

Winter enthusiasts — this one’s for you.🐕

Riverhund Kennels is beyond proud to introduce the newest additions to our Toller breeding program.

Please welcome:

✨ “Flurry” – Offshore's You Can't Flurry Love
At 2 years of age, Flurry joins us from Offshore Kennels in Florida. She first caught my attention from her puppy photos, and when Kelly offered for her to join our program, I couldn’t say no. Her sweet and quirky temperament has only made her more special.

✨ “Vita” – Scarlet Arrow Di Casa Toller
Vita comes to us all the way from Italy, bred by Di Casa Tollers. She brings with her exceptional pedigree depth and the kind of presence that turns heads without even trying.

We are incredibly grateful to both breeders for entrusting us with these two special girls. Opportunities like this don’t happen without strong relationships and shared values in breeding.

Both Flurry and Vita are settling in beautifully here at Riverhund Kennels, and we’re excited to thoughtfully incorporate these pedigrees into our program. We believe strongly in building forward with intention, health, temperament, and breed integrity at the forefront.

The future is bright — and we can’t wait to share the journey with you.
