Japanese Spitz
The Japanese Spitz has a keen, intelligent, and cheerful persona. They have been referred to as being a sturdy, supple, lively, cheerful, bold and clever dog. They make an affectionate pet.
The Japanese Spitz is usually extremely wary of stangers and barks easily, making them a good “early warning” guard dog. Firm, loving training is recommended. They require regular brushing and combing.
Japanese Spitz History:
The small white Japanese Spitz looks like a small Samoyed or American Eskimo dog. In 1948, a breed standard was first established by the Japan Kennel Club and by 1950 was very popular. The origins of the breed are unclear due to the destruction of the breed’s records during World War II, the breed either descended from the miniaturisation of the Samoyed or American Eskimo Dog breeds, or it descends from the White German Spitz dogs that were introduced to Japan around 1920. Today the Japanese Spitz is growing in popularity in many countries largely due to their loving companionship and an alertness as a guard dog for the house.
