Where Every Paw Feels at Home.
A pure white cloud of a companion with a happy smile
The Japanese Spitz was developed in Japan in the early twentieth century as a bright, pure white companion. It is cheerful, quick to learn and bonded to its family, with a dense coat that stays surprisingly clean but needs regular brushing.

This breed needs about 45 minutes of activity a day. Around 3 sitter-led sessions a week keeps that routine going when work or travel gets in the way.

They are alert and will announce visitors, but they are generally less noisy than some other spitz breeds. Early training for a quiet cue keeps it in check.
The white coat repels dirt well, so baths are rare, but brushing a few times a week is needed. Expect heavier shedding once or twice a year.
Yes, it adapts well to smaller homes with daily walks, and its moderate barking is easier on neighbours than many spitz types.
