American Eskimo
American Eskimo Dogs are white, or white with biscuit, long haired, double coated dogs with triangular ears held erect and a plume-like tail carried over the back. There are three established sizes: the standard, the miniature and the toy. Standard Eskies can range from 15" to 19" tall at the shoulder. Miniatures range from 12" to 15" while toy Eskies can be from 9" to 12" tall at the shoulder.

American Eskimo are a spitz dog with a convoluted and colorful history. Typically northern-dog in appearance, the American Eskimo's bright, appealing temperament, skill, and snowy coat made him a favorite with circus audiences whether he rode in a cart pulled by other dogs, pulled a small cart himself, rode horseback, or accomplished a variety of other feats. The Eskie plies his traditional trade in living rooms all over the country as he delights owners and friends with his pranks and abilities.

The Eskie must be trained, and that training must be done with kindness and consistency. The breed is unforgiving of harsh methods and may turn into a shrinking violet or a troublemaker if not treated fairly and firmly. Many American Eskimos have excelled in UKC obedience trials and the dog is a favorite in animal acts. Now that AKC has approved their inclusion in the miscellaneous group, they will begin to compete at AKC trials as well.
