Eskies can need a lot of grooming, but when my Kui was still alive I would groom him when I got home from work, It would relax and de-stress me, combing him out layer by layer. He enjoyed it, too!

American Eskimos used to be the guard dogs of Princes and Kings during German times and throughout Europe, so if it carries a bloodline of defensive, can be protective of certain people. they love children and will guard them a lot, however can occasionally get aggresive if the child/person does something it doesn't like. That, and it loves to play.

It's so true when they say that American Eskimos act as puppies when their adults. I adopted mine when he was 7 or 8 years old and he still plays like a puppy and loves to cuddle.

Sadly the eye thing is true too. My eskimo is blind from one eye. We don't know what caused it though.
