German Spitz
The German Spitz is a fairly compact, short Nordic breed with a nearly square outline. They are well knit and firm, with a dense coat that comes in a variety of colors and markings. The males are distinctly masculine and the females are distinctly feminine. Their traits include being active, intelligent and alert, with a confident, happy disposition showing no signs of nervousness or aggression.
German Spitz History:
Along with many of the Spitz breed family, including the modern Keeshond and Pomeranian breeds, they are thought to descend from Stone Age Peat dogs making them among some of the oldest known domestic breeds. The contemporary German Spitz comes in three different size varieties: Gross (Giant), Mittel (Standard) and Klein (Toy). In recent years all three varieties have been declining in popularity in Germany, this is possibly due to the amount of care required to groom the coat to prevent matting.
