2006 Calendar - American Eskimo Dogs - 12" x 12" - 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 popularized 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 recognized by the AKC in July, 1995. This 2006 wall calendar presents a collection of fluffy American Eskimo Dogs, both puppies and adult dogs.
