Breed History[]
The Samoyed, or Sammies, gets its name from the Samoyedic or Samodeic people, a group of semi-nomadic people in Asia who migrated to Siberia thousands of years ago. These fluffy white dogs were bred to work in the extreme cold, with some areas of Siberia dropping to -60 degrees. Samoyeds have a tight bond with people, given that working together with humans meant survival for both the people and the dogs. These dogs were used for carting heavy loads and working as watchdogs and hunters. Eventually, Samoyed went from hunting reindeer to herding and protecting them. Samoyeds were introduced to England in the 18th century by Arctic explorers returning to England. Queen Alexandra from Denmark and Queen Consort of the UK was fond of the breed and promoted it as a companion dog. Many English and American Samoyeds are descendants of Samoyed from her dogs. In 1906, a dog named Moustan of Argenteau was the first of the breed to be registered in the AKC when Samoyeds were known as Samoyede.

The breed has 5 standard breed colors in the game with currently 5 color-modifying sushi. Within the game, the breed is considered a Working breed group and can thus enter competitions listed as Working-group only.
