Arctic Spitz
Creating "family-friendly" huskies
About
The Arctic Spitz is the proposed breed name for the pomsky as breeders work toward AKC recognition. It started as a Pomeranian × Siberian Husky cross, and breeders have since added American Eskimo, so the breed now has three founding breeds. The goal is a versatile family companion: outgoing, confident and affectionate, friendly with people and other dogs, and just as happy on a hike as on the couch.
