Research suggests that the Icelandic sheepdog is a descendent or relative of the Norwegian Buhund, and experts believe that other ancestors of the breed were dogs kept by those who colonized Scandinavia.

and, despite the fact the breed is still very small in numbers, it is no longer considered to be in danger of extinction. It is most likely descended from dogs introduced by Scandinavian colonists. It is probably a relative of the Norwegian Buhund.
