- Samoyed vs American Eskimo. Which would be a good fit for you? Yeti's Mom has owned both breeds and has loved and adored both. A Samoyed and American Eskimo, both Spitz breeds, look quite similar, but have different personalities and are known for different traits. American Eskimos are good dogs for one person and are great guard dogs. Samoyeds love everyone. The larger the family, the happier they are.

Confused on what the difference is between a Samoyed and an American Eskimo? There is a big difference between them, from their size, to personalities and their working ability and energy level. They both love the snow. Muppet, my American Eskimo, would roll around in the snow and he'd get excited when it was snowing. Yeti loves it too.
From my reading, the Eskimo,- once called the German Spitz, is related more closely to the Pomeranians, who once were larger than present- at 20-30 pounds, but Queen Vicky took a fancy to them and bred them down to smaller sizes that are common now, our Pom Jasper was a genetic throwback to more of the original size, and just to confuse the issue, our female Sammy was 35 lbs, the same size as our Eskimo. The Sammy is supposed to have originated in central Asia, and with their people were pushed north into northern Siberia. They are said to be one of the more ancient breeds and are little changed from the wild canines. I've read that evidence of them in domesticated form has been found dating back around thirty thousand years They were the first creatures to set foot on the south pole, as they were pulling the sleds, and got there first, the people being behind them on the sleds.
Hello, Cranky Yankee! Muppet, the American Eskimo I owned when I was growing up, looked very similar to Yeti. They’re the Mini-Me’s to Samoyeds, as far as their looks. Yes, it’s true that female Sams are between 35-50 pounds. Yeti weighs just over 65 pounds.
The big difference between the 2 breeds, is their personalities and that Sammies are northern breed working dogs. Wow, are they hard workers, who rarely tire out. Muppet (American Eskimo), had some energy, but not the high energy and strength and sheer power of a Sam. Sammies are super friendly dogs, who love and adore everyone. Eskies are particularly fond of normally just one person and are very protective.
Thank you for taking the time to comment. Interesting hearing about Poms, as I don’t know much about them. I’ve never owned a Pom, nor have I been around for them too long. They are cute little fuzzballs.
Very useful! Thank you for informing us (:
@@crankyyankee7290 my Pom looked like an American Eskimo except he was the standard apricot colour. He passed away and I got eskie because I knew it would be difficult to replace my Pom. He was that special. My eskie however acts like how the person in the video speaks of her Samoye. He is super friendly with everyone whereas my Pom wasn’t and super protective of me. I prefer that as I didn’t have to worry about him getting stolen. My Pom only barked when he wanted something - outside, pet me, my toys under the couch, get it. He was super smart.
One thing you forgot to mention: Samoyeds can be extraordinarily protective. If they think someone is harming a member of their family they can go into full tilt attack mode. I've seen this with both Samoyeds I've owned. Children have to be careful not to "roughhouse" with their friends in front of a Samoyed.
I’ve been around many Sammies over the past 40 years. Yes, they can be protective and they can also run into another room if there’s an argument. Both of the Sams I’ve owned have run into another room when my husband and I have a verbal disagreement. None of the Sams owned by personal family members have gone into protective mode. I haven’t seen it happen before, which is why I didn’t mention it. If a child is roughhousing with friends, I could see them barking and jumping up on the friends.
I've never heard Samoyed pronounced this way. I've raised a Samoyed and an American Eskimo. I loved them both with all my heart. The Eski was super quick to train. The Eskie liked my husband more than the rest of the family. I felt a little left out at times. She was by my side all day long but when my husband came home I was second best. Our Eskie loved visitors and especially women.
Eskies are definitely one person dogs. They’re super quick to train, as they had been circus dogs.
When you watch the big televised dog shows, Westminster and The National Dog Show, Samoyed is pronounced the way I pronounce it. Professional breeders pronounce it that way too.
Either pronouncement is fine. Samoyed is pronounced that way because it is the “correct”, albeit not the “common” pronouncement, it's named after the indigenous Upper Siberia Samoyed people. An excellent book through many iterations is “The Complete Samoyed” by Ward if anyone is interested in these tibbits.
It’s a good book.
@@agvella777 Thank you for the explanation about how to pronounce Samoyed. I will get the book too.
@@YetisPlace I enjoy learning something new everyday as I get closer to 80 years old I never want to stop learning. Thank you!
My Eski passed last year. I loved him deeply. And yes, he only wanted me and not my husband. He did love my oldest son, almost as much as me, though. He was potty trained in only 3 days at 12 weeks old when I adopted him. Sooooo smart. I miss him still every day, and it's been a year and a half now.
I'm sorry to hear of your loss. It is tough to go through the loss of your beloved dog.
Samoyed: "Serious"
American Eskimo: "Y so serious? Tonight, fluff toys are going to die."
Muppet, my American Eskimo, enjoyed his toys.
My first Samoyed, Chewy, had such a fun, silly personality. Yeti is very determined.
@@YetisPlace I've thought about getting a Samoyed, I can imagine my Paisley's reaction, "y u such a big boi, wut r u eating"
The American Eskimo may not really care to own his house with another fuzz pup.
Haha my Eskie has offed many fluff toys and he’s definitely not serious...unless he feels the need to back, which is ALL the time but I can’t imagine life without him.
Our dogs truly complete our lives.
Eskies are easy...I have had mine for 4 years and is on point for guarding the house. After 5 minutes, the Eskie is fine with everyone..Each dog is different...
Awesome
Hi, I recently adopted a 2yr old Eskie girl named Aura. True to that breed, she's supposed to have a dense, DOUBLE coat by now but all she seems to have is that her outer guard hair and I can see right through to her pink skin! She's my 3rd Eskie and I recall they had nice, thick double coats.
I’m sorry to hear about your American Eskimo. I feel that she had either undergone stripping of her inner coat, or shaving it all off. When you shave a dog you shouldn’t shave, it leads to rough growth, the undercoat doesn’t grow back as it should. That happens if a groomer isn’t properly trained.
I’m really sorry to hear this and do hope her inner coat can grow back.
My American Eskimo barks to get my attention and loves everyone but is very smart I’ve noticed
They are really smart. My Muppet knew how to spell. Glad to hear your’s loves everyone. Mine was very devoted to his family. He did really love the Grandmas too. When they’d come visit, he’d be really nice with them.
Still prefer samoyed for the Sammie smile
The Sammie smile is precious.
Hello I recently got a Samoyed puppy and I had a few questions/need advice she’s five months and can’t sit still at all when I try to brush her she constantly try’s to worm her way out or chew on my face,arms
Also do they usually drink a lot of water because she drinks a lot a lot
And is okay to trim the fur on the inside of her ears and this is the last question is it normal for the fur to curl a bit?
Hello, Jade_Draws. Congratulations on your new Samoyed! 5 months old, she is an active, chewing puppy, with a lot of energy. Exhaust her before grooming, by playing a lot and bringing on a good walk. It will make controlling her easier. Brush her in and enclosed space, such as on a grooming table, or in a bathroom, door closed, with limited space. Bring treats and give them to her, the moment she settles and is good. You can gently drape one of your legs over her, to make her feel enclosed and protected. It will help calm her. Start off with short grooming sessions, using one brush and lots of treats while she’s being good. If she bites you, yip at her, like a puppy does when hurt. She’ll listen and begin to realize she shouldn’t do that.
Yeti drinks a lot of water, so we don’t fill his bowl all the way. We fill it about halfway. Otherwise, he’d just keep drinking and have to go potty all day and night.
I would not trim the fur inside their ears. The fur helps keep their ears warm. You can trim the fur between her pads of her feet. Trimming foot pad fur, eliminates painful ice balls in the winter and provides better grip for walking/playing/running.
Yeti has areas of fur that have gentle, loose curl. Mostly, it is very long and straight.
Great questions! Thanks for watching!
@@YetisPlace That "yip when they bite you" thing really works well, took us one week back in the day to get our Eskie to stop nipping.
That's really great, Mike! Glad to hear our tip helped you.
I don't know if I have a samoyed or eskie because they look alike but what I do know is he's a handful he nips a lot and it hurts plus he hardly sits still doesn't take commands
I have many videos on how to train a Samoyed puppy. Please be patient with your puppy.
I have an eskie. He's the sweetest boy to everyone. I think it's just up to socialization. We've passed his star test and are soon passing his good citizen test. It's all up to how they're trained, at least in my opinion.
That’s wonderful that you have a sweet Eskie. They are such cute dogs. We tried socializing Muppet, but he just preferred his family, especially my Mom. So, more of his guard dog traits came out when we had friends over. He was really good about going into his crate when he was asked. Once the visitors were inside and settled in, we’d let him out of his crate. He was good then. Thanks for taking the time to comment and let me know about your really good Eskie. Glad to hear he’s a sweetheart.
Yes ! We own an American Eskimo too and she’s the sweetest dog I’ve ever own. Super easy to train too never has accidents at home and she’s not a destructive dog. My son leaves toys everywhere around the house and she has never chewed on any of his toys. She’s and absolute joy .
Lucky my eskie is the most meanest and sketchiest dog you’ll ever meet. Everyone is like: “awww so cute!” Then she proceeds to bark, growl and try to bit them. 💀 Also my eskie looks so much like a puppy Samoyed. A lot of people think she is because she looks different than most eskies lol (she’s 7 years old thou) 😅
Thank you for this! I always get mixed up
You’re welcome. There’s a big difference in them, from size, personality and what they’re meant to do perspectives. Thanks for stopping by and commenting!
Happy 4th birthday Yeti!! Such a big beautiful boy. LOVE Yeti!!
Thank you, Richard! Yeti is very special.
I’m a bit shocked at what this lady says about Eskis. My late eski was great with everyone and didn’t love just one person above another. He was a great family dog. Great with my kids of all ages. Never bit or lost patience with them. He was super smart…could find a way to escape out of our dog room gate, while our other two dogs had no interest in doing so (and are different breeds). He was a good watch dog and while he did bark especially when people came to the door, it wasn’t excessive. The hair is essential to keep maintaining…it will get everywhere lol
I used to brush my American Eskimo daily. He loved it, especially his belly. But, he didn’t like visitors, only family and was extremely attached to my Mom. They’re good dogs for one person. They are smart, as they were used a lot as circus dogs.
Don’t be shocked by what I say. What I say is based on my experience with mine and what other owners and breeders have stated about Eskies.
@@YetisPlaceThat is great that you are sharing information based on your experience, as well as what others have said. I wasn’t calling you out for what you said. In fact, just like you, I am sharing my personal experience as an Eski owner with your viewers, because it’s important to understand that all pets have their own personalities and may be the exception, as my boy may have been. I love the breed so much and in my research never had heard that they are for one person, nor in my experience. Have a great day.
I’m glad you’ve had warm and wonderful experiences with your Eskie. All dogs have their own unique personalities and traits, especially dogs within the same breed. I’ve had multiple Samoyeds in my lifetime. Each one has been so special and with their own personality. Same with differences between your American Eskimo and mine. Mine went crazy when it snowed. He loved the snow and would take snow baths.
My God that is a handsome creature.
Thank you! Sammies LOVE everyone.
Eskimo owner here. Our puppies were so bad with visitors and strangers I thought they would never get over it.
However, every day I had the time, I took them to big public places and asked friendly stranger to give my dogs treats and invited them to pet the dogs.
Now, years later, they’re quite friendly to all visitors and strangers… maybe too much 😅 they get big attitudes if people try to leave or stop paying attention to them. Their expectation seems to be strangers exist to adore them
Your reverse psychology training is a wonderful idea! Great to hear you have good Eskimos now.
We have had both ,plus, _3 Sammy's over the years,1 Eskimo, 1 Pomeranian ,and now 2 Eskimo /Pom. mixes,yeah the Eskimo's can be very wary of strangers,and need to be watched carefully around them,our sams loved everyone ,and everything,our Pom. ( a throwback at 26 lbs,,, a rescue)was a once in a lifetime dog,just incredibly well behaved,the most outgoing dog I've ever encountered,he made friends with everything he met sadly, he had a tick borne disease when we got him ,then developed other serious problems,and left us at 6 years old,miss him badly ! Then we rescued our first Eskeranian 20 lbs ,a bit touchy at first(don"t touch her backside,or tail,as you would be snapped at,she had just been dropped at a shelter, at 1 1 /2 years and I question her early treatment. She has since become very gentle,trusting,and loving,and very close to me,then another Eskeranian came along, needing a home,(the first looks like an Eskimo with a Pomish face,the second looks just like a miniature Siberian,mostly black with white,and a Siberian face,and build) who is orientated slightly more toward the wife,both great dogs,who love going to car shows,meeting people,and visiting nursing homes ,the first spending a lot of time in one while I enjoyed a longish stay in one for recovery,and therapy from a fractured neck,(doing great now).The second was raised as a puppy with a mature cat,and has some comical cat behaviors.
When I was a kid we had a huge Husky,half Malmute,half Wolf,a big fearsome looking ,gentle baby.
Wow, you've been quite the dog owner, Cranky Yankee! Lots of fuzzies! All super cute fuzzies, of different sizes. Poms are super floofy and adorable. You've practically owned the entire northern half of the world, with your dog you had when you were little. Malamutes are gorgeous, visually stunning dogs. Loved reading your story, Cranky Yankee. I'm glad your health is back to normal. You're really fortunate, after breaking your neck. Good thing you had your Eskeranian to help nurse you back to health. Thanks for stopping by and commenting! Yeti and I love reading stories like your's!
+Cranky Yankee
It was clear to me the eskies were bred to alert you to any problem, especially if you are asleep, then let you deal with it. In this day and age that is the perfect dog, nobody wants to be sued...
Muppet, the American Eskimo I owned while I was growing up, would attack all visitors. He wasn’t nice to anyone other than family. You could be sued if you own a dog who bites and face having to put your dog down. They are a good dog for one owner and are very loyal to one person.
Looking to adopt a Samoyed your channel has helped me prepare myself before I adopt one. Thank you so much!
You’re very welcome, Charlotte!
They are work, but so worth it. I’m glad to hear you’re a bit more prepared for one.
I was describing what a Samoyed is, but acidentally called it a American Eskimo, and the person I was explaining it to almost adopted the wrong breed c : (After more research of course)
Ooof. Why didn’t they research to begin with? A Sammy is a challenging breed of dog and if the person adopting doesn’t realize what they are prior to adoption, I’m worried that dog will end up in a dog shelter.
Give my buddy an extra belly rub for his birthday from me.
Happy Birthday Yeti!!!!!!!!!!
Did you watch all the way to end? Yeti had a special message for you.
@@YetisPlace I sure did! Thanks.
You’re welcome!
How interesting, we own an American Eskimo. I’ve had many dogs throughout my life but I have to say she’s been the smartest sweetest dog I’ve ever own. Made me fall in love with the breed. She loves people but she doesn’t like other dogs. She’s not mean she’s just not interested. When I take her to the dog park she’s always sitting just next to me. And yes she’s a watch dog through and through lol .
Great to hear you have a wonderful American Eskimo, Laura joshi. My Muppet was adorable. He loved being brushed. He was really attached to my Mom. Muppet was really smart too and he liked other dogs. Other people, not as much. They’re great watch dogs. Thanks for watching, commenting and sharing your story!
My dog is the same she’s entirely uninterested in other dogs but she likes people
Glad to hear, Jack.
Wow, I must have had a weird Eskie(standard size) when I was a tween/teen! He was a great barker but loved visitors and would let small children do anything to him.
He hated being groomed and the most he got was a brush every week or two and never got any mats.
Very headstrong and refused to learn any tricks other than sitting/lying down but he was already 7-8yo when I got him.
He liked everyone pretty much equally I think but spent the most time with me because I'd walk/play with him but at night he'd sleep by the front door with two cats piled on him and never with a person.
He probably didn’t like being brushed because the brushes might have been scratchy. I’m glad your American Eskimo was well adjusted.
I've noticed Samoyeds have wider noses, and American Eskimo have slimmer pointed snouts .. is this a telling sign to distinguish the breeds? Or can Samoyed dogs also have slimmer noses?
Sams are so much larger than American Eskimos. There are 2 shapes to Samoyeds. They either have really long legs and longer bodies, or they’re shaped like Yeti, with a stocky, solid body, super strong. Sams have a square shaped head. Eskies have a bit slimmer head and more rounded eyes. Sams have almond shaped eyes, with that stunning Samoyed smile.
American eskimo or German spitz is amazing breed of cource and the other spitz family husky,chow chow,akita,samoyed
They sure are
American Eskimos are sooooooooo cuteeeeeee & niiiiice
They are. Muppet was a character. Thanks for commenting, CuteDog LilAngel.
I av an Eskimo he his really cute but he doesn't like having a bath , and he his to playful
They are very cute.
Someone help me out my eskie is much trouble for me I don't know what to do I'm contemplating selling him off but I'm open to suggestions if ever it'll work
Please don’t sell your puppy. Involve play with your training. Tire them out first, by bringing on a long walk. Then, train for short times, multiple times daily. If you own an American Eskimo, they’re very smart and learn quickly. Use fun ways to train. For sit, involve treats and play. For stay, immediately after they’re staying put for a short time, reward with play and treats. Make training fun for them.
@@YetisPlace I'll try this please kindly throw more light on potty training mind you he's 2 months and a week old
@@YetisPlace plus he bites really hard when playing how do I stop him from doing that
Here’s my potty training playlist to help you out. ua-cam.com/play/PLntoGso_YvhAArzLEmZ9cLsR3J3yBEFLu.html
Here’s the link for how to stop puppy biting. ua-cam.com/video/BZa1pR4tH30/v-deo.html
give Yeti some more treats and belly rubs for me please!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰😘😘😘😍😍😍
Will do!
Happy Birthday Yeti 🎉🥳
Awww, thanks, Suzy!
For some reason i love samoyeds but dont like American eskimos, ig its because they just dont seem as fluffy and they dont have that walking cloud look
I’ve owned both. Sammies are so much more friendly, happier dogs. They adore everyone and are not guard dogs. They’re bigger and floofier, no oil in their coats.
American Eskimo’s attach to one person, are a bit more like guard dogs for their one person. They have some oil in their coats.
@@YetisPlace im talking about their looks, the eskimo just doesnt really seem as fluffy
Eskimo’s coats have oil. Sammy coats have zero oil. That’s the reason for the fluffiness.
The way I spot the difference is that the American Eskimo has more rough fur, while the Samoyed has move fluffy fur thats not as rough
If a Sammie is neutered/spayed, their fur becomes softer. If they’re not neutered/spayed, the outer coat is a bit more coarse. American Eskimos are half the size of a Sammie, with rounded eyes. A Sam’s eyes are more almond shaped.
Yeah that's what I'm thinking too 🙂
@@YetisPlace I think I'm following you on Facebook or is that not you?
If it’s Yeti’s Place, then you are.
@@YetisPlace Oh yeah that's great 👍🏻
do you know if American Eskimos need as much physical activity as Samoyeds?
They do not. American Eskimos, are good dogs for one person and they are not as active. They don’t like visitors.
@@YetisPlace can one person be enough for a Samoyed, though, or do they need some more company?
Sammies love everyone, even if it is only one person. They require a lot of exercise, are demanding and are difficult to train. If you are able to get through that, they are wonderful dogs.
Definitely going to look into those treats.
Jon, Yeti goes crazy over them. Refuses to eat other treats. Begs me every night for Bullymake treats. The link’s in the description. Thanks!
Had an Eskimo 15 years and with no allergy issues. Yet highly allergic to most other dogs.
Allergies are strange things for sure and annoying. I’m glad you didn’t have trouble with your Eskimo.
@@YetisPlace your right. I also have a beautiful Pom that’s looks like a Sami . No allergy issues either but my daughters Pom causes issues ? Guess it is to do with possible breeding issues . Our past Sami’s had two litters of 8 puppies each. So I know the love you have for your dogs.
The only dogs that might be labeled as hypoallergenic, are poodles and second generation+ poodle mixes. Sams, Poms, Eskies aren’t necessarily hypoallergenic. I know there isn’t oil in a Sam’s coat, which oil is the cause of many dog allergies. Allergies can come and go at any time too.
@@YetisPlace Grandpa also had to buy 3 poms for the grandkids. Lol. When I bought my current Pom he replaced the one my granddaughter kidnapped . So when I went back to the seller for another dog she said what happened? I told her “ you didn’t tell me I had to feed him ! Lol. She believed me for about three seconds . It was priceless !! I enjoy your channel and respect your love of dogs ! God bless. !
Thank you for enjoying my channel. Yeti and I really enjoy being there for our viewers. He really loved seeing himself on our TV when we started. He’d beg me every night to film. Kept me going with UA-cam. Now, he’s in it for the treats and has gained weight as a result.
It’s impossible for a child and adults not to fall head over heels in love with a fuzzy, adorable dog. Poms are very cute.
Hii!! Nice video! I was wondering if you can explain me something. I will get a dog soon and I really love the clingy ones, I know that samoyeds needs a lot of sport and I am a sporty person. But when I’m at home I want an affectionate dog waiting for give love. Would you recommend me samoyeds or maybe other breed? Thank you so much
Hello, Elena Soto! Samoyeds do love their people a lot and need to always be with their families. They’re very friendly and enjoy cuddles. They also enjoy playing keep away. As long as you understand they need a lot of daily activity. They are the most friendly and happiest dogs. Great question! Thanks for asking!
Yeti’s Place thank you for answering!! You’re so lovely! I was having this dilemma and didn’t know what to do, I guess I’m looking a dog with a golden’s personality and the beauty of the samoyed hahaha. I appreciate you to take time and respond all the questions!!💖
Samoyeds are very difficult to train. You have to think like they do, which is tricky if you’ve never owned one. Goldens are much easier to train. Their coats are oily, they can get stinky, but they listen. Sammies are odorless, but they shed a lot and don’t listen. Both breeds are friendly. Sammies don’t bark when there’s someone at the door. Goldens do. Goldens are good for first time dog owners. Sammies are a challenge for first time owners, due to inability to listen, becoming bored easily and thereby, becoming destructive. If you know and understand all of this, you would be a good fit for a Samoyed. I talk about how to work with the breed in many videos. Our channel would be a big help to you.
Yeti’s Place oh yes, I understand. This is what keep me thinking a lot. Well thank you again😊 I will keep watching your videos, have a good day!!❤️
Thank you. You too!
So I’m thinking of getting a dog and I was wondering what would be the more cuddly dog? I really love dogs that love to cuddle as much as me! So I just wanted to know which breed would be the better one to give cuddles to, the Eskimo or the Samoyed.
Sammies are bigger, therefore more cuddle space. They often enjoy playing more than cuddling, but once they get tired, they do enjoy cuddling. They’re super friendly, happy dogs, who love everyone.
American Eskimos, attach themselves to one person. All other people, they don’t pay much attention to, if they’re family members. If anyone else comes over, they become guard dogs. Muppet, the American Eskimo I had while growing up, was attached to my Mom. He bit everyone, other than my Mom, at least once. He didn’t feel remorse. When I’d be petting Muppet, sometimes he didn’t like it and would snarl.
Sammies love everyone, don’t snarl, don’t bite for mean reasons. Not a single mean bone in their bodies.
Sammies need a ton of exercise. A lot of long daily walks, plenty of playtime. If they don’t get that, they become destructive and will eat your house.
Yeti’s Place How much exercise would you consider to be a good amount?
They’re working dogs, who originated in Siberia, hauling heavy loads of wood, food and equipment for their owners. Their energy is unstoppable throughout their entire lives. Yeti is brought on 3 long walks daily, of at least a half hour each time. He’ll often beg for more and needs a lot of playtime, fetch, wrestling with his humans. Samoyeds aren’t good dogs for first time dog owners, due to their energy demands and extreme intelligence. They’re one of the smartest breeds of dogs. Meaning, they don’t listen to human commands. You have to train them how they want to be trained. Use work, play fetch, while instituting training sit, stay, come, down. They don’t learn how many other breeds learn. Dog and puppy training, provides basic skills. When you come home from those training sessions, you have to combine the training with having fun, playing, allowing them to haul equipment, or while pulling you on roller blades/skateboard.
I stress, they’re not good dogs for first time dog owners, due to the difficulty training. Once you’ve owned another breed of dog and have accomplished training the traditional way and are up for the challenge of owning a Sam, then they would be a great fit.
That having been said, if you’re up for the challenge, they’re the friendliest, most loving dogs. They need a lot of grooming, nearly everyday. Grooming can be a challenge, but provides good bonding time.
Great information... Not got the space for a big doggo, especially a furball like Yeti but he is such a handsome boy.
Thanks, George! I don’t have the space for guinea pigs, with all of Yeti’s toys and treats everywhere. haha
Thanks for the compliment on Yeti.
Yeti is certainly a big doggo, with an even bigger personality and huge stomach for treats.
Wow, am I glad I watched this! I rescued a dog last year from a high kill shelter, who is half or mostly shiba, and looks very shiba coat-wise, but has short legs, shorter tail, broader chest/body, shorter snout, slightly straighter ears, and her eyes are more almond-shaped and bulge out a bit. All this time I thought she was half pomeranian, but I just happened to fall on some AE pics, which were making me wonder if perhaps it is half AE genes. Now that I've listened to your breed descriptions... omg, she must be half AE! She is very aggressive toward ANYONE other than her one person (who is now me), is very protective and barks accordingly, and generally does not tolerate even the other animals... 1 shiba she wants to fight with, my submissive one she actually loves now. But she has attacked everyone (human and animal) in this house since being here (over a year now). She just bit my husband last week, in fact, and we thought she had decided he was mostly okay. I do think there is a lot of error in former owners training, likely had none. I have come close to considering euthanizing her, as I have to keep her on a leash ALL day, holding it or tying it to the table, as we've yet figured out how to get her to stop being so fight/bite oriented. She is 10. I would love to send you a pic of her so you can determine if she looks AE! If I could find your email, I'd love to talk a bit if you have any suggestions for her! Thanks!
Muppet loved my Mom. He bit all the rest of us at least once. But, he was mostly well behaved around my family. Was gentle with grandparents. I would ask a vet for recommendations on dog training courses near you. I wouldn’t euthanize her, as it could be trauma from her past. Your vet would have an idea of breed and would have info on training courses to help the attitude.
@@YetisPlace i have consulted with my vet, and she really didn't have anything to say that was different from what I already knew. I guess it's time to really dig deeper and help her work through more of it. I am quite sure she wasn't socialized as a puppy, so that doesn't help. Knowing more about her possible breed helps a great deal! It's been a rough year with her, and I have to deal with chronic fatigue, pain, and other issues. We have 4 dogs total, 3 cats, and a bunny. I took her in because no one else would. :\
Enroll her in dog training courses. You could also Google search Cesar Milan, as he works with many difficult pets. I know he has a UA-cam channel.
Hi there, I have watched numerous videos comparing Samoyed, Pomeranian and Spitz, but I’m still unsure what type of puppy is mine, the animal doctor told me it was a Pomeranian but it looks similar like a Japanese Spitz as well. Can you take a look at my video to advise me?
Samoyeds are large dogs, like Yeti. Pomeranians are tiny, toy dogs.
Yeti’s Place so I would only be able to know once they grow bigger?
I would listen to what your vet thinks the dog is. If it’s a Samoyed, they grow really fast and get big quickly.
Yeti’s Place ok thank you very much
You’re welcome, Pinky’s Snowball.
Can you tell me if there is any similarity between those two and Japanese spitz?
No similarity. Different breeds.
I would be interested to hear the differences? I have a 1/2 Japanese spitz dog and I was considering getting a full but I want to know more about them. All I can find online is about American Eskimo and Samoyed. Thank you.
Japanese Spitz dogs, are a bit bigger than a Pomeranian. Smaller than an American Eskimo. A Samoyed, is the largest and strongest among them.
Sammies have always had a place in the working dog group within dog show. Within the past few years, American Eskimos have become part of the non-sporting group for dog shows.
American Eskimos came over to the USA from Germany. Due to anti-German sentiment felt during World War I, their name was changed to the American Eskimo.
They are a larger dog than the Japanese Spitz and a different origination.
A Samoyed has almond shaped eyes. The eyes of an Eskie and Japanese Spitz, are more rounded.
How do i know if mine is an eskimo or a samoyed
Sammies are bigger. Eskimo’s have more rounded eyes and more guard dog oriented. Sammies will ignore people who come over or enter their homes, letting them enter in complete silence. Then, they’ll get excited and bark, wanting to be pet and rubbed. An Eskimo will bark profusely at them and may even try to bite. They don’t want to be pet by a visitor. Sammies have more almond shaped eyes and are a much larger dog.
I have a dog now BUT its not a samoyed
Thank you for watching our video!
I have an American Eskimo Dog named Sparky!
Well, hello Sparky! My American Eskimo, when I was young, was named Muppet. They are cute dogs, aren’t they?
@@YetisPlace Indeed they are! :)
Which one is more expensive?
I would think Sams are more expensive, due to being a recognized, working dog breed. American Eskimos had just been allowed to compete in dog shows, within the past few years.
Glad yeti is back
He’s glad to be back!
It was Yeti’s 4th birthday, the day we released this video.
@@YetisPlace really, i guess this sammy is full in that day😁
The facial structure is completely different between the too. The build is different. I’ve always pronounced it “sam-oid”
Yes, the facial structure is different between them. Sammies also have 2 different body shapes. The taller legged, longer, more lean body shape, which was what my first Sam, Chewy was. It’s also the same shape as Yeti’s buddies, Quimby and Bigby. Then, there’s Yeti’s shape, which is more boxy shaped, shorter legs, more powerful body.
I had owned an American Eskimo when I was growing up. He had a similar appearance to Sammies, but a slightly different facial and body shape.
Depending on where in the world you live, there are different pronunciations for the Samoyed breed. The way I pronounce their name, is the way it’s pronounced within the professional breeding and showing circuits.
Nice! I’ve owned a Japanese Spitz and two Eskimos (Male and female). They have all had more pointed ears, tho the female Eskimo had smaller ears.. Our Spitz had very broad shoulders and visibly muscular legs, unlike the eskimos. They all have their own personalities. I have noticed the eskimos have much more voracious appetites and will eat anything they can find. We’ve had to watch to be sure they don’t eat their own excrements. 🙈
So basically eskimo is a Walmart somoyad?💀
Other than kind of looking alike, they are completely different dogs.
How many years is your 🐕
Yeti’s 5 years old.
thos dog is my love and agreemg
Both breeds are very special dogs.
i swear all samoyeds loooves belly rubs... even our samoyed is like that jeesus. Belly up bark bark and dad comes and belly rub. and hes like laughing and enjoying and than nibble nibble! cause hes 4 and a half month old soo teething! yaaaay.. poor hands though.
so our puppy is extremely playfull. and have some stupidity.
hes showing hes braind dead stupid side when hes misbehaiving. Did yeti do that too? or still does it?
Also i noticed other dogs naaah... but humans let me greet let me greet... does yeti do that too?
Yeti is very smart. My first Sam, Chewy, learned our words and behaviors and what they meant, extremely quickly. He would then ignore what we wanted him to do. So we had to change up our discipline frequently.
They’re not brain dead nor stupid. They know exactly what they’re doing, which is trying to get away with what you don’t want them to do. Your Sam is now in the velociraptor stage. Happens between 4 months and 2 years of age. He will be a little monster. But, you must remain consistent with your discipline and give him plenty of play and exercise to wear him out.
Sams adore people.
@@YetisPlace ive noticed.... he is funny though.
Is yeti neutered?
No, not yet.
Is American Eskimo the same as the Japanese spitz ?
They’re 2 different breeds. American Eskimos, are in between the sizes of Samoyeds and Japanese Spitz. Japanese Spitz, are a bit larger than Pomerania, but smaller than American Eskimos. Here’s the video we just released on Samoyed vs Japanese Spitz, where you can see the size difference. ua-cam.com/video/D9W6tYRu_Ss/v-deo.html
@@YetisPlace thank you 🙏
You’re welcome!
Do samoyeds are OK for guarding?
Samoyeds are not guard dogs. They love and adore all people.
@@YetisPlace can an American eskimo be a guard dog
I had owned an American Eskimo when I was growing up. They are meant as guard dogs, although not as aggressive as any of the breeds you had listed.
There are both spitz ‘s but I will have to go with Samoyeds 4 sureeeeee
Sammies are one of the oldest breeds of dogs. Muppet (my American Eskimo from when I was growing up), was a cute dog, with an edge to his personality. He really enjoyed being brushed. I too prefer Sammies, as they have such a sweet, gentle, loving personality.
👍⚾️🐶
Thank you!
What about Japanese Spitz?
I compared Samoyeds to American Eskimos in this video, as I’ve owned both breeds.
I like to say it’s all wool not fur
It’s actually double coated, thick hair. I just don’t call it that too frequently, as it gets a bit confusing for those who haven’t owned one, nor been around them. Their inner coat, feels so much like very soft, cashmere.
It is extremely warm.
Lol love this video I have an eskie mix I adopted when he was two. I've had him for over two years and finially bought akc and ukc puppy from a farmer who breeds and shows his dogs I've adopted all of my animals including my snake fish cats ect. But I wanted an eskie SO BAD and searched for years and could not find one anyways I agree with EVERYTHING you e said, besides the kid thing. I had my kids when my older one was around 6yrs old. He stopped sleeping with me. Stopped cuddling with me. Everything. If the baby cried and I didnt immediately get up he would bark at me. The kids are a little older now he diesbt di that any more but he still sleeps with the kids over me lol. The new eskie though is a nipper idk if that's an eskie tarte or a teething puppy thing but the kids handle it well. After this video I'm interested in a samoyed. Great video!!!
Thank you for your comment, daddysgirl102938. My late Eskie loved my Mom and snow. He was cute and loved being brushed by me. Would beg me every night for a nice brushing and really enjoyed his belly brushings. They are cute dogs and good guard dogs, who don’t need as much exercise as Sammies. If you want a really friendly, non-guard dog, who’s super energetic l, a Samoyed would be a nice fit. Thanks for your comment!
Thank you so very much for your kind compliments on our video!
My dog eat and killed a bumble bee
Yikes! Scott, did your dog swell up? That’s as bad as chasing after a baby skunk.

Thanks
@@YetisPlace that’s in Russian .
Stress on first syllable .
Sæ moid moid not like in anthropoid or carotenoid , but like the Brists say oi .
And you’re welcome . I loved your video .
Thank you for loving our video and for the Russian pronunciation. In the United States, it's pronounced by professional Samoyed breeders and at the largest dog shows, the way I pronounce it. The world is a large place, with many different pronunciations, depending on where you live.

Hello, Mochi. Thanks for watching!
