Miniature American Eskimos

Also known as the Eskie, the  American Eskimo Dog is one of America's favorite pets because of its luxurious good looks, playfulness, loyalty and adaptability. They come in three sizes-  Standard, Mini and Toy breeds. American Eskimos are smart dogs.  They love their owner families, including playing with children and roughhousing in the backyard, though they may be reserved around strangers and visitors.

 Eskies are described as fiercely loyal, and tend to bond strongly to one person. They are very intelligent; some owners report that they may be too intelligent. They will require early socialization and obedience training so that they can grow into healthy and responsive adults.

Here at Southern Ridge Farm and Kennels, all of our eskies are AKC and/or UKC Champions or Grand Champions.  All adults have been Optigen tested and all of our eskies are pictured on this web site.
