What aspects of a Samoyed indicate happiness and social competence?
A cheerful Samoyed often exhibits a wagging tail, a comfortable body posture, and a lively temperament. They are sociable and affectionate with their families.
Do Samoyeds frequently dig in the yard?
Some Samoyeds have an urge for digging, especially when they're bored. By giving them toys and activities, you can stop this behavior.
How can I keep my Samoyed cheerful and mentally active throughout in hot summers?
Provide indoor activities in warm weather, access to shade, and avoid vigorous activity in the midday sun.
