Fails GNG, none of the cited sources are RS. I have little doubt that these dogs exist but I could find nothing attributable about them. Cavalryman ( talk) 00:13, 29 November 2019 (UTC)

Delete. A topic has to be notable in order for it to be allowed in Wikipedia; the Eurohound isn't. Cavalarious ( talk) 01:48, 29 November 2019 (UTC)Blocked sock. ST47 ( talk) 02:17, 29 November 2019 (UTC)Keep. There are several sled-related Google books that mention them. They are probably well known in the sledding community, and I suggest that if this article was deleted then it would be recreated again fairly quickly. William Harris

- This is one I struggled with, but I could not and still cannot find any attributable RS about these dogs, I have heard about them before but I am unsure where. Kind regards, Cavalryman ( talk) 23:34, 1 December 2019 (UTC).

- Delete - changed my position, nobody appears to be interested, if it is notable then someone will recreate it in the future.

- Delete - yet another crossbreed that was bred for a purpose but never developed into a purebred. I'm not seeing it as notable, or listed with any recognizable/notable registries as a breed, or with any FSS to verify parentage or that it is a purebred. Just doesn't cut the mustard per GNG, V or N. Atsme Talk 📧 21:45, 8 December 2019 (UTC)
- Keep - Alaskan Huskies aren't pure breed either, but are the most used breed for sleddog races (mostly for longdistance races) in the US and Canada and for that very notable. The Eurohound on the other hand is the most used sleddog in Europe, where you got more short- and mid-distance races. So I don't see why "not being a purebred" is even important in this matter or why Eurohounds are less notable. As an alternative, maybe a section on the Alaskan Husky page would be enough, since the Eurohounds partly descend from Alaskans Fratzengulasch ( talk) 11:09, 9 December 2019 (UTC)

- Delete. This appears to be one person's WP:Neologism for another person's personal crossbreed. That person, Egil Ellis, apparently calls them "Scandinavian Hounds". There's a description here, from page 102, which may be a WP:RS; another is here, but that title is published by the august house of Books on Demand. Perhaps just WP:TOOSOON?
