American Eskimo Dog History

This is obviously a Nordic dog that is from the Spitz family. However, the name is misleading as Eskimo’s had nothing to do with it’s creation. It is a German breed who’s name was changed after World War 1 when the German naming convention wasn’t so popular. It is thought to have hailed from Germany. The American Eskimo Dog was originally bred to guard people and property and, therefore, is territorial by nature and a valiant watchdog. It is not considered an aggressive breed but they are typically very vocal, and will let you know anytime someone comes close to her territory. After World War I, they started to gain notoriety as common entertainers in the American circus. In 1917, the Cooper Brothers’ Railroad Circus featured the dogs. It was not until 1995 that he was recognized by the American Kennel Club.
He is smart, loves to play, and loves physical activity. He is wary of strangers but is affectionate and playful with his family. He does not do well being left alone for long periods and can suffer from separation anxiety. They are an affectionate and loving dog that is easy to train.



Beagle History

Perhaps the world’s best-known beagle is Charles Schulz’s Snoopy, star of the Peanuts comic strip. Although Schulz modeled his creation on his own childhood dog, the cerebral and aloof Snoopy should not be considered an example of the breed!

Real Beagles are happy little family dogs who love attention. They are active, playful and energetic, particularly in puppyhood and adolescence. Professionally, the Beagle is a proficient scent hound who tracks and traps small game, typically working in a pack. Non-hunting family Beagles also behave as part of a pack, even if the pack is just you and your Beagle.

Experts caution against having baby Beagles and baby humans in your home at the same time, given that the demands of caring for puppies and human infants and toddlers simultaneously will drive most adult humans to their beds. Instead, allow your older children (5+) to experience the fun of raising a puppy and helping with the work. As with all dogs, consider adopting a middle-aged or senior Beagle to avoid or minimize training requirements.

Beagle history is someone murky. A nameless Greek hunting dog from the 5th century is considered the Beagle’s likeliest and oldest ancestor. Later on in the 8th century, the St. Hubert Hound begat the Talbot Hound, which eventually led to the birth of the beagle.

Believe it or not, the first dogs to be called beagles stood just 8 to 9 inches in height and were commonly called “Pocket Beagles.” Elizabeth I of England kept several Pocket Beagles, using them to entertain guests at court. It’s not clear why hunters and breeders wanted to create such a small dog, and by the mid-18th century the Beagle had grown in height and length to more closely resemble the dog we know today. Sadly, the “Pocket Beagle” became extinct in 1901.

The 1840s and the surge in the popularity of fox hunting led to the development of four distinct dogs known as Beagles, some of which had little in common with the others. By the 1870s, the breed was dying out again until a dedicated group of Beagle aficionados set about saving them. By 1902 there were 44 known packs in England, a number that would grow in the new century.

Beagles were introduced to the U.S. in the 1870s and a quality bloodline was established. Their popularity grew quickly. Beagles are the first breed to appear on “America’s Top 10 Most Popular Dog Breed List” every year since their AKC acceptance. They have been frequent winners in AKC competitions since the late 1920s, and in 2008, a Beagle took “Best in Show” at Westminster for the very first time!

Small game hunting is not the only job that suits a Beagle. These days law enforcement uses him as a detection dog, as his scenting ability helps him quickly locate prohibited agricultural items as well as illegal drugs. The U.S. Department of Agriculture calls their team the Beagle Brigade.
