Although some types of American Eskimo Dogs grow to a height of 19 inches, there are smaller versions of this versatile breed as well. The toy type is between 9 to 12 inches and weighs only 6 to 10 pounds. The miniature version grows up to 15 inches in height at the shoulder and weighs up to 20 pounds once it reaches adulthood. The American Eskimo Dog is one of the most trainable of any dog breed. It’s intelligence, and friendly personality are just two traits that make it a perfect family dog. If neglected or untrained, however, Eskies can quickly become a handful.
