Description
Dog Breed: American Eskimo Dog. Please Note: This animal is listed as a courtesy to another organization or individual. Please be sure to contact the foster/caretaker for more information about him/her. Meet Sweet Mariah and hear her story. Yes. Mariah is a diabetic that gets 5 units of insulin twice a day. In addition, she had severe corneal ulcers and glaucoma from uncontrolled diabetes. Therefore, her eyes were removed due to progressive eye disease. She is blind. Mariah gets along very well with other dogs. She has been good with my dog (beagle). She has never become aggressive, barked, or growled at other dogs. Mariah is very good with children. However, because she is blind she occasionally does run into things. She is very friendly and does not mind being pet or played with. Mariah is very good in a veterinary clinic. She currently lives at my veterinary clinic due to her medical conditions. She does not bark or become anxious. Mariah is the sweetest dog I've every met. She has been through so much but has never let anything dim her light. She loves being around people. She thrives from positive vocal feedback. She loves to be pet and rubbed. She is crate trained, but if it were up to her she would snuggle with humans. She has no preference when it comes to men vs women. She loves all humans. I recommend having Mariah on leash or in a fenced in back yard because she is blind and may wonder too far if not guided where to go. For more information to give this sweet gir a home please contact Catie theilercatiegmail

Overview:
The American Eskimo Dog, often affectionately called an "Eskie," is a charming and intelligent spitz-type breed originating from Germany, despite its misleading name. These beautiful dogs come in three sizes—toy, miniature, and standard—all boasting a striking white double coat, erect ears, and a plumed tail curled over their back. Known for their alert and friendly disposition, Eskies are highly trainable and excel in activities like agility and obedience, reflecting their history as circus performers. Their energetic and playful nature makes them wonderful family companions, though early socialization and consistent training are crucial. While adaptable to apartment living if given sufficient exercise, they thrive with a yard and an active lifestyle. Owners should be mindful of potential health issues such as hip and elbow dysplasia, progressive retinal atrophy, and luxating patellas. With proper care and attention, American Eskimo Dogs are loyal, loving pets that bring joy to their families.
