www.eskimodogs.net. A Global network directory of Eskimo dogs. The American Eskimo Dog is a breed of companion non-working dogs originating in the United States in the 1900’s. It is a member of the Spitz family of dogs. In the 1930’s and 1940’s it became a popular sight as a circus performer. The very first dog to walk a tightrope was an American Eskimo dog. This exposure to the American public increased the desire to own them and sales of pups at circuses was a common practice. The American Kennel Club (AKC) recognized the breed in 1994 and set the current standard for the breed. The United Kennel Club (UKC) had recognized the breed much earlier. There is a toy and standard variety of American Eskimo dog. There is no difference between the two breed standards except that the AKC allows the toy size and the UKC does not. One of the first dogs noted by Europeans upon their arrival to the Americas was a Spitz like dog they called the Eskimo dog. Other breeds of dogs may also be found on this website.
