There is also a Miniature variety, (12 pounds and more -15 inches) and a Toy variety (-12 inches and -15 pounds) .''STANDARD'' 15" to 19'' and 20 to 30 pounds. The American Eskimo has a wedge-shaped head, triangular, prick ears, and a heavily plumed tail carried loosely over the back. The brown eyes have white lashes. Pads of the feet are dark with white toenails. The profuse double coat is pure white with black nose, lips and eye rims. Some cream markings are permitted. The coat is heavy around the neck, creating a ruff or mane, especially in males. The coat is surprisingly easy to care for. A weekly brushing is generally quite satisfactory. | |||

| Characteristics | |||
| Naturally wary of strangers. One Eskimo owner says, "No stranger can enter our home until we've told our Eskies it's okay." This breed should be thoroughly socialized when young to avoid potential aggression-related accidents. Eskimos need to be part of the family and engage in nuisance activities when isolated. Handle them gently, but firmly. This breed needs attention and loves to bark. The American Eskimo has been exploited by pet shops selling inferior quality animals with poor temperaments and other serious problems. Buy only from a reputable breeder. | |||

| History | |||
| No one knows exactly when and how the American Eskimo originated. However, the American Eskimo is one of the Spitz family of Nordic breeds, and is possibly related to the White German Spitz, Samoyed and White Keeshond. Evidence suggests that "White Spitz" dogs were first brought to the United States by German settlers. A couple named Hall, in 1913, was the first to register the breed with the UKC. Their kennel name was "American Eskimo" which became the name of the breed. The American Eskimo was spread throughout the United States by the Barnum and Bailey Circus; Stout's Pal Pierre was the first dog ever to walk a tight rope. The North American Eskimo Dog Association was formed in 1969, and the stud book was closed. The American Eskimo Dog Club of America formed in 1985 for the purpose of achieving AKC recognition. This goal has now been achieved. As of July 1, 1995, the American Eskimo was formally recognized by the AKC. | |||
