All about the
Eurasier.

The Eurasier owes its life mainly to the unwavering commitment of a German called Julius Wipfel of Weinheim. During the post-World War II occupation of Germany, Julius and his companion, Elfriede, took in a puppy left behind by an Allied soldier retreating. Despite its proclivity for killing animals and even other small pets, the Wipfels thought this breed, of unknown ancestry, was the most enchanting dog they had ever owned.

Female Eurasiers are 48?56 cm tall at the withers and weigh 18?26 kg, while males are 52?60 cm tall and weigh 23?32 kg. The Eurasier is a well-balanced Spitz-type dog with a thick coat of fur that doesn't obscure the dog's contours. It has a wolf-like head with a prominent furrow between the eyes that runs from the smooth skull to the muzzle, as well as a scarcely perceptible stop.

Eurasier is self-assured and calm, and what he needs is to be close to his family. He is a wary and vigilant defender who is reserved but not hostile toward outsiders. He thrives in a household where everyone is around during the day. The Eurasier may like visiting places with you, but he dislikes meeting people he doesn't know.

Frequently asked questions about the Eurasier.

Eurasiers, like many other dogs with heavy fur, shed a lot. They go through heavy shedding at least once or twice a year, which lasts about three weeks. Clean the dog regularly and give them warm baths to keep this underhand.

Eurasiers need a once-a-week or bi-weekly thorough combing/brushing, as well as body checks for burrs or rodents, washing of their eyes, ears, and feet, and daily nail clippings, if necessary to keep them safe and comfortable (especially their dewclaws). They have no body odor and need to be bathed once in a while.

Eurasiers usually shed their entire undercoat once or twice a year for around three weeks. Regular combings/brushings are needed during undercoat shedding times to avoid picking up ''wool'' balls from around the house. Eurasiers' fur can get much heavier, broader, and more difficult to handle whether they are spayed or neutered.

The Eurasier is a dog that is not too active. Many Eurasier owners will classify their dogs as lazy. This breed will benefit from a 30- to 60-minute stroll once a day, but they will also enjoy some active playtime indoors or in the backyard.

Regular walks and active play with other dogs are recommended for Eurasiers. When conditioned and reliable to remember, off-leash walks are favored.

Any Eurasiers love swimming, while others prefer endurance or obedience. Some function as service dogs as well. When they're indoors, they're quiet, but they're busy and enthusiastic when they're outside.

Eurasiers were bred to be sturdy and dependable. They are, on the whole, a healthy breed. To avoid health issues, breeding is subjected to extensive monitoring. Hip Dysplasia, patellar luxation, distichiasis, thyroid problems, EPI, and gastric torsion are all diseases that can affect the breed. Before marriage, the parent club expects all breeding dogs to be health tested and supports monitoring of offspring to learn as best as possible about the breed's health.

Eurasiers are gentle and even-tempered dogs, making them excellent companions for children of all ages, especially if raised with them. They are significant to medium-sized dogs that are not aggressive and can generally interact with excited children.

However, once you know them, Eurasiers are always shy, and it may take time for them to warm up to strangers. However, children should learn and understand how to handle and play with these puppies.

Eurasiers are friendly, but they may be wary of outsiders. This can be mitigated to a great extent by adequate socialization. They are devoted to their families, eager to please, and easy to train, despite displaying individuality.

The Eurasier is a compassionate dog that does not need strict punishment; instead, it motivates learning by gentle care, compassion, and understanding. The dog's training should be fun and not dull since he is quickly bored.

The Eurasier is a social dog that has to be included in the household. Eurasiers are usually non-confrontational and will only protect themselves if strictly necessary.

Eurasiers need time to get acquainted with other dogs. They are not hostile or easily provoked, but they are wary of dogs and other pets they do not recognize or are unfamiliar with. When they are with other dogs for long enough, they will finally warm up to them with proper socialization and time.

Eurasiers get along with pets, other dogs, and cats just fine. It all boils down to preparation, socialization, and good fortune.
