Eskimo Dog


The American Eskimo is a small to medium-size Nordic-type dog, which looks like a miniature Samoyed. There are three varieties: the toy, miniature, and standard. The American Eskimo has a wedge-shaped head with muzzle and skull about the same length. It has erect triangular-shaped ears, and a heavily plumed tail curled over the back. The coat is always white, or white with biscuit or cream markings. Their skin is pink or gray. The coat is heavy around the neck, creating a ruff or mane, especially in males. The breed is slightly longer than it is tall.
