Loki the American Eskimo is what you will make with the directions in this pattern. The American Eskimo is six and a half inches tall and eight inches from nose to tail.

The American Eskimo dog is a small to meduim sized dog. The American Eskimo dog stands furry with erect ears and a long tail curling over its back. Originally a sled dog, the breed’s small size has removed them from the realm of the sled dog. The dog’s double-coat and ears are cold-resistant and it remains a sled dog in miniature.

The Eskies were bred to be house dog and companion dogs. They make excellent watch dogs because they are extremely intelligent, very active, eager to please, has lots of energy and moderately independent.
