Summary
About Eurasier
The Eurasier is a medium, plush-coated Spitz bred as a calm family companion. Sensitive and deeply bonded to its people, it prefers a peaceful home, is reserved but non-aggressive with strangers, needs moderate daily walks, mental games, gentle training, and regular coat care.
About Hokkaido
A sturdy, medium-sized Japanese spitz with small, erect ears, a curled tail, and a dense double coat. Its heritage as a hunting dog for the Ainu people is reflected in its stamina, courage, and strong prey drive. The Hokkaido is loyal and eager to learn, but also independent. It needs an active, experienced owner who can provide exercise, mental stimulation, and positive socialization, with extra grooming during shedding season.
