Samojedinkoira

FCI:

Samoyed - Group V. - Spitz and primitive types, Section 1 - Nordic sledge dogs. Recognized in the year 1913th.

General Appearance:

Samoyed is extremely friendly, helpful, attentive and agile and extremely hospitable nature, with very faint hunting instinct. It is never shy or aggressive. Even during its old age it retains the playfulness and always in a good mood. It is very sensitive, but never intrusive, quite docile, but also sufficiently independent.

Temperament/Behaviour:

Education must be nice but consistent when it is increased duration of training it is usually bored, so no longer cooperate. Better it is therefore practice more and shorter. The most important part of education is calling back and walking on a leash, so if possible it cannot pull. Education and training is running well where owner is hardy enough and dog is positively (snacks) stimulated.

Because it is a very social, not clearly watchdog consistently defending territory, however it is barking alerts the owner reliably for any unusual events. Nice nature it makes the dog an excellent friend the small and big children. It excellently tolerates other dogs.

Although it could be housed year-round outdoor kennel, it does not deserve it, most satisfied is in permanent contact with the owner and its family members. Conversely, the outdoor kennel it may get bored and start with the devastation of its equipment.

If the opportunity, dog likes to run a motion for dog is everything. A tendency to wander off there are mainly individuals that suffer lack of exercise. Unless it is calling foolproof, it is recommendable to have free space for a longer leash. It is highly advisable to give it the opportunity to pull in harness, whether on snow or drought, it can operate in the summer and winter scootering skijoring. With appropriate training dog can successfully participate and compete in pulling. After the performance it is as pulling sled dog usually evaluated as a transition between Alaskan Malamute-stayers, and the Siberian-English sprinter, so as a runner on medium-haul-miler.
