The Samoyed is a fluffy white dog bred to work alongside Arctic herders. Known for their thick double coat and smiling faces, these dogs originally helped the Samoyedic people with tasks like pulling sleds and guarding reindeer.

  • Their dense double coat keeps them warm in freezing temperatures.
  • They descend from a working dog breed called the Nenets Herding Laika.
  • Historically used for herding, hunting, and pulling sleds.
