American Eskimo Dogs 2008 Wall Calendar Unrelated to the working sled dogs and possessing a beautiful snow-white coat, American Eskimo Dogs are highly intelligent, alert, and friendly. The Barnum and Bailey Circus popularised this breed throughout the United States. An ?eskie? named Pal Pierre was the first dog ever to walk a tight rope. The breed was officially recognised by the AKC in July, 1995. This wall calendar presents a colection of fluffy American Eskimo Dogs, both puppies and adult dogs.
