The detail
Bred by the Samoyedic people of Siberia to herd reindeer, pull sleds and sleep beside their families, the Samoyed is friendly, gentle and famously smiling. That white coat is its biggest demand: it sheds heavily and needs frequent brushing.
What to weigh
Samoyeds shed a snowdrift of hair and bark or howl when bored or left alone. They need company, exercise and serious grooming, and they do not tolerate heat well.
