Japanese Spitz

The Japanese Spitz is a small, fluffy white companion known for its 'big dog' personality and thick, snow-white double coat. Developed in Japan in the early 20th century, they are renowned for their loyalty and alert nature, making them excellent watchdogs despite their size. They are highly adaptable family dogs that thrive on human companionship and stay playful well into their senior years.
