Four Swedish Lapphunds are on the board this season, and the pace-setter is Claryhills Biera Moonshadow at 22.82 mph (8.96 seconds over 100 yards), chasing last year's 23.76 mph best, narrowly ahead of Myralappens Helena (0.06 mph). That top speed makes the Swedish Lapphund the 198th-fastest of 251 breeds in 2026. The top 4 average 22.7 mph. Nothing's settled until the season closes.
