Samoyeds, known as angel smiles, are loved by everyone. However, when they were young, because they were similar to many dogs, it was inevitable that some friends would buy Samoyeds that were not purebreds. Let’s teach you how to choose a Samoyed based on appearance. dog.

Expression: Whether you have a smiling expression is very important. When on alert, the ears are pricked up.

Trunk: Neck - strong, muscular, with a graceful arch.

Chest: Deep, with well-spread ribs allowing free movement of the forelegs and shoulders.

Lower back: The withers are the highest point of the shoulders. The loin is strong and slightly arched. The back is straight, length of stroke, and well muscled. The body is approximately square, with length approximately 5% longer than height. Female dogs are slightly longer than male dogs. The abdomen should be drawn upward. The buttocks are plump, slightly sloping, and connect naturally to the tail.

Tail: relatively long, reaching the elbow joint when hanging naturally. The tail coat is long and thick. When the dog is on alert, the tail is raised higher than the back or to one side, and droops when resting. The root of the tail should not be too high or too low, and the tail should be flexible. Two curled tails are a fault. The tail is raised higher than the back only once during competition.

Disqualification conditions: Colors other than white, light yellow, cream: blue eyes. The selection of puppies depends on characteristics. For pedigree issues, you can only look at the pedigree certificate.

Appearance: A very thick coat. Male dogs have collar-like hair, but female dogs do not. The Samoyed's back should not be too long, because too long may cause the back to be weak and unable to do the job. But at the same time, the body should not be too compact, because this will not be effective in pulling the car. Male dogs are masculine in appearance and behavior, but are not allowed to engage in aggressive behavior without permission. The female dog has a gentle temperament, but her body should not be weak. The back of a female dog can be slightly longer than that of a male dog. The limbs should be relatively long. Samoyeds with short limbs do not conform to the standard.

The line connecting the base of the eyes and the center point between the eyebrow arches forms an equilateral triangle. Muzzle--Medium length and width, tapering from the base to the tip. The muzzle is proportional to the body shape and skull size. The muzzle must have a certain thickness. The beard cannot be cut off. Lips - Black is preferred, with the corners of the mouth turned up like a smile. The lips at the corners of the mouth should not droop. Ears---thick, upright, triangular in shape, slightly rounded at the tip; ears should not be too large, but not too small either. Ear size should be proportional to the dog's height and head size. The ears are set widely apart, but the heel is within the edge of the head. The ears are mobile and have hair inside them, and the hairs in front of the ears are numerous and upright. The length of the ear is equal to the distance from the inner base of the ear to the outer corner of the eye. Eyes--Dark color is best. The eyes are sunken, widely spaced, almond-shaped, and the lower eyelids are tilted toward the base of the ears. Darker edges of the eyes are preferred. round eyes, blue eyes, eyes overNot meeting the standard in terms of prominence. Nose---Black preferred, but brown, liver-brown noses are also acceptable.
