The black-and-white dog on the left looks just like a Karelian Bear Dog to me. I read somewhere that the then all-but-forgotten Karelian breed had a renaissance on Svalbard beginning in the 1970's when laws protecting the Polar Bears were tightened up and a nonviolent way of driving them away was needed.
very nice video
