Q&A
answer · Japanese Spitz
I wish I had known they can be prone to separation anxiety. They really bond with their family.
answer · Japanese Spitz
I would recommend them without hesitation. American Eskimo Dogs are not only adorable, but they are also incredibly affectionate and intelligent. They bond well with families and are always eager to please. Just be ready for some grooming!

I get it; it's a fur storm!
answer · Japanese Spitz
My Japanese Spitz absolutely adores my children. They play together all the time, and I've never had an issue with aggression. In fact, the dog seems to have a natural instinct to be gentle around little ones. It's important to supervise any interactions, but they usually love chasing each other around the yard or snuggling up together on the couch. This breed is known for being social, so having a family atmosphere suits them well.

Teaching my American Eskimo the 'quiet' command was a game changer! They are naturally vocal and can be quite dramatic at times. Early training made a big difference in managing their barking. It took some patience and consistency, but now I can enjoy quiet moments at home. I highly recommend it to anyone with this breed!

Japanese Spitz are totally worth it! Their charming personalities are hard to resist. They tend to bond really closely with their families.

My Eskie has a knack for 'talking' back. One time, I told him to stop barking, and he let out a series of hilarious howls in response!
answer · Japanese Spitz
Yes, definitely!
answer · Japanese Spitz
Yes, I would choose an American Eskimo Dog again. They are so loving and great with children. Their intelligence makes them easy to train, but they do require consistent exercise to keep them happy.

What's the funniest thing your Eskie does to get your attention?

What's your favorite thing about owning an Eskie?
answer · Japanese Spitz
My American Eskimo Dog, Snowball, thrives on meeting new people. Every time we walk in the neighborhood, she practically drags me towards anyone she sees. It's adorable how she jumps and spins when someone stops to pet her, and she gets along well with kids and adults alike!
answer · Japanese Spitz
People stop us all the time to compliment my American Eskimo Dog. His fluffy coat and playful demeanor really draw attention.
answer · Japanese Spitz
Training them not to bark too much can be difficult. They are natural watchdogs and will alert you at every little noise. I try to reward quiet behavior and redirect their focus, but it takes consistency.
