coat, color & grooming
 
The thick double coat of the Icelandic Sheepdog is very waterproof and can be one of two lengths: medium or longer, always with a thick, soft undercoat. It can be straight or slightly wavy, and it comes in several colors--shades of tan, ranging from cream to reddish brown; chocolate brown, gray; and black--all with white markings and sometimes with a black mask. The tail is very bushy. Weekly brushing will keep the coat in good shape.
