Answer 4

The American Eskimo is a type of Spitz. They are not huskies, samoyed, malamutes, or sled dogs of any type. They are much smaller than the huskie types and are not sled dogs. They do make great pets,great with kids & love to play

Answer 5

"It is a small to medium-size Nordic type dog, always white, or white with biscuit cream."
"The face is Nordic type with erect triangular shaped ears, and distinctive black points (lips, nose, and eye rims). The white double coat consists of a short, dense undercoat, with a longer guard hair growing through it forming the outer coat, which is straight with no curl or wave. The coat is thicker and longer around the neck and chest forming a lion-like ruff, which is more noticeable on dogs than on bitches. The rump and hind legs down to the hocks are also covered with thicker, longer hair forming the characteristic breeches. The richly plumed tail is carried loosely on the back. "
"American Eskimo Dog (all measurements are heights at withers): Toy, 9 inches to and including 12 inches; Miniature, over 12 inches to and including 15 inches; and Standard, over 15 inches to and including 19 inches"

Answer 6

I think an American Eskimo is also known as a Samoyed (my spelling may be off). They tend to be smaller than, say, a Huskie.

Answer 7

I think it's called an Eskimo Huskey and they are big and beautiful with blue eyes.

Answer 8

An american eskimo is a person, not a dog. jerk.
