While you may believe that these dogs were bred in America, this breed is actually from Germany. They descended from the German Spitz, a Nordic breed that was brought to America by German immigrants in the early 1800s. They were given their name during World War I when the country was against all things German. Thus, the German Spitz was replaced with the American Eskimo dog.
