ARE SAMOYEDS GUARD DOGS?
No. They are not aggressive to people and usually view strangers as another person who might scratch their butts! Samoyeds are watch dogs. They watch everything (and I do mean everything!) and bark to let us know “something” is out there. There is a wide range of “something” which includes visitors, anyone walking past “their yard”, deer, squirrels and of course other dogs or cats. I’m confident they’d show a burglar where the good stuff is if they got a treat or a butt scratch.
