About the Eurasier

The Eurasier is a German dog breed that was developed in the 1960s. The ancestors of the Eurasier, the Wolfspitz and the Chow Chow, were cross-bred and the new breed was then called the Wolf-Chow. In 1972 the Wolf-Chow was crossed with the Samoyed and the offspring was renamed Eurasier. A year later the Eurasier was recognized by the Federation Cynologique International (FCI).

The Eurasier is a medium-size, Spitz-type dog with a medium bone structure and a soft, medium length coat in various colors. The Eurasier can also have a pink, blue-black or spotted tongue.

Height and Weight
Males: 52 - 60cm (20.5 - 23.6 inches); 23 - 32 kg (50.6 - 70.4 lbs)
Females: 48 - 56 cm (18.9 - 22 inches); 18 - 26 kg (39.6 - 57.2 lbs)

Eurasiers are intelligent and self-confident; well-balanced, and with a high tolerance level. They are watchful and alert without being incessant barkers; they are loyal to the family but reserved with strangers without being unfriendly. The Eurasier is also loving with children and gets along well with other family pets. In the home the Eurasier is calm; during walks he is lively and full of energy.

The excellent qualities of the Eurasier will only develop if he is allowed to live in close contact with his family. He cannot be housed in kennels or left tied up outside. Easily trained, the Eurasier needs love and understanding.
