FAQs

What are the downsides of owning a Japanese Spitz?

Japanese Spitz dogs have several downsides including heavy shedding due to their thick double coat which requires regular grooming, and they are not hypoallergenic. They can suffer from health issues such as patellar luxation (kneecap dislocation), arthritis, eye problems like cataracts and glaucoma, and other conditions like runny eyes and cancer. Behaviourally, they may experience separation anxiety leading to destructive behaviour if left alone too long, and they tend to be quite vocal, barking frequently which requires training to manage effectively.

Are Japanese Spitz dogs rare in the UK?

Yes, Japanese Spitz dogs are considered relatively rare in the UK compared to other more common breeds. This rarity contributes to their higher purchase price and more limited availability in the region.

Are Japanese Spitz good family dogs?

Japanese Spitz dogs are excellent family pets as they are affectionate, loyal, playful, intelligent, and good-natured. They typically get along well with children and other dogs, making them gentle companions. They are also alert and courageous watchdogs despite their smaller size, and are generally easy to train, which suits family environments.

Is the Japanese Spitz the same as a Pomeranian?

No, the Japanese Spitz is not the same as a Pomeranian. While both breeds belong to the Spitz family and share some physical features such as a double coat and alert temperament, the Japanese Spitz is generally larger, has a different coat texture, and differs in temperament and grooming needs. Pomeranians tend to require more grooming and are often seen as higher-maintenance compared to Japanese Spitz.
