  • Samoyeds were originally bred by the Samoyedic people of Siberia to herd reindeer, pull sleds, and keep their owners warm.
  • Their signature “Sammy smile” isn’t just cute—it prevents drooling, which keeps their fur cleaner in freezing conditions.
  • Samoyeds are known for their vocal nature and will “talk” to their owners with howls and barks.
  • Their thick double coat insulates them in cold weather and even protects against UV rays.
  • Despite their fluffy coats, Samoyeds are hypoallergenic due to minimal dander.
