Overview:

Miniature American Eskimo dogs are a small, lively companion breed originating in the United States, celebrated for intelligence and trainability. They feature a dense white double coat, erect ears, and a plumed tail curled over the back, typically standing 12–15 inches and weighing 10–20 pounds. Their temperament is affectionate, alert, and playful, making them engaging family pets who enjoy learning tricks and participating in activities. With consistent exercise and mental stimulation, they can adapt to apartment living, though their vocal nature benefits from early training. They are generally good with children when socialized, and serve as effective watchdogs without aggression. Health considerations include potential patellar luxation and eye conditions (such as PRA), and regular grooming is needed to manage shedding. Overall, they suit active households seeking a bright, friendly companion.
