Eurasier Information
The Eurasier originated centuries ago among tribes living in central Siberia. These remote Russian people domesticated primitive dogs, descendants of the Wolf-Spitz and Chow-Chow, which they named the Laïka.
The present day, Eurasier is similar to the Laika. During the 1950's, when the export of Soviet dogs was prohibited, German scientists, led by Professor Konrad Lorenz, decided to revive the breed by crossing a female Wolf-Spitz with a male Chow Chow. After those breedings, they mixed the new Wolf-Chow cross with a Samoyed. In 1974 the FCI approved the Eurasier as a new breed.
The Eurasier is a very reserved dog with strangers that is very watchful without being noisy. They adjust themselves easily to new situations due to having a very calm nature. They are fond of the entire family and typically fond of other domestic animals. The breed does not have much of a hunting instinct so they are not known to be prone to wondering off. They are quick to learn and eager to please, and tends to bond very strongly with its owner and/or family. The breed does not like to be away from those it loves.
They stand about 23 and a half inches tall and can weigh up to 70 pounds. Their coat is of medium length that is soft, straight and abundant. Their colors can range from red, fawn, wolf gray, sable and black. Due to the Chow ancestry, they may have a blue-black tongue as well.
Health concerns with the breed include Hip Dysplasia, Patellar luxation, Diseases of the thyroid, Diseases of the pancreas, Diabetes, Disorders concerning teeth, Kinky tail, and Entropion.
