Zima is a male Norwegian Elkhound who was born May 23, 1997.  His name was chosen because it means 'winter' in Polish.   He weighs approximately 40 pounds.  Zima is generally a very mellow dog.  He rarely barks, is very calm most of the time, listens and behaves well and is very affectionate.  Zima also can be very playful.
