Samoyed: Understanding the Dog’s Character

The white Samoyed is a breed of sled dogs. He is outgoing and friendly but can be a bit stubborn. He loves to be around his family and is very active.

Samoyeds are known for their urge to work and move. The dog was originally bred in Siberia as a sled-dog, but was also used to herd reindeer, as a hunting dog, and as a companion. He has an independent mind, and his hunting instincts are kept in check. He can be a great family dog with consistent and loving dog training.

As friendly as he looks, the Samoyed is usually just as friendly. He is open-minded and affectionate towards humans. He is not shy and likes to be in the spotlight. Samoyeds are intelligent and versatile, and they can be brave. They’re not usually aggressive. He should still be treated as he is: mental and physical activity will ensure that this lively four-legged companion gets along well with its owners. The more the Samoyed dog is exercised, he will be happier.

It is true of all dogs, but the Samoyed is particularly resilient. The Samoyed was a working dog and had many different jobs. It is fun to see him enjoy a variety of occupations. He is a master of extended walks, games and intelligence tasks. But he also excels at dog sports, dog sports, and even dog races. He is a great family dog because of his human-oriented nature and friendly personality.

Does the Samoyed possess a natural hunting instinct?
According the breed standard, he should not, but it is possible that he retains some of this instinct. This tendency will only be apparent if you have not socialized your Samoyed enough, if he hasn’t been properly trained, and if he hasn’t been adequately exercised. Our guidebook, “A Samoyed Moves In: Parenting Tips”, contains tips for raising this adorable dog.
