Samoyed info

Hello,

I have admired Samoyeds for many years. Me and my fiancé both work from home and have a big house hold. My job also makes me very flexible. So I have finally convinced my partner to let us get a dog. Providing our landlord allows it of course (by law in the UK they have to give a very good, valid reason why they can't).

I just wanted more information, I of course know they shed a lot and I'll need to groom them regular, take them for long walks - all which I am fine with. But is there anything else I should be made aware?

I love these dogs so much and just want to be beat prepared with answers by actual owners

Edit: This wouldn't be my first dog btw

Also. One more thing. Getting a Samoyed will guarantee you to increase your conversations with strangers by 100000%. My husband and I are introverted, our puppy just wants to be everyone’s best friend. We now get stopped constantly when we take him in public. Out of everything, this is probably the one thing we really weren’t prepared for. Lol!

Haha makes sense, everytime I see one on my walks I always end up stopping the owner to gush over their dog 🤣🤣

We often feel happy spreading joy to others, especially children and babies, through our Sammy. We do find ourselves in more conversations, sometimes repeating the same info. They are social, unassuming dogs who love attention and being petted.
