Both the Japanese Spitz and the Samoyed are members of the Spitz family of dogs but there are many differences between the two breeds.
The Samoyed is a medium to large sized working breed dog that has a lot of energy and needs extensive exercise. They do not make good watchdogs, but are very loyal and intelligent. However, they do have an independent spirit and need firm training, and owners must have an understanding of the breed to keep this breed from misbehaving or becoming destructive.
The Japanese Spitz is much smaller than the Samoyed, and is a companion breed dog. They make good watchdogs and are also very intelligent. They also need firm training in the beginning and can have a stubborn streak, but they are content to be lap dogs and obedient to their owner.
Both breeds are family dogs and need constant human attention to be happy.

What is the difference of a Japanese spitz and a Samoyed?
The Jack Russel terrier is often confused with either the Russel terrier or the Rarson Russel terrier. But my arguments should hold for either of the three. 1) they both span from 2 completely seperate families. The jrt comes from the terrier family.Originally bred for fox hunting. The Japanese Spitz comes from the spitz family. Originally the spitz was bred to look nice for wealthier japanese people. 2)The spitz is usually completely white with a long, smooth, clean, double coat. where as the jrt is usually no less than 51% white with brown spots throughout. the jrt aslo has either short hair or wired hair. 3)The spitz has a much more quiet temperment than the jrt. apart from barking to alert it's family of a new person in the garden, the spitz is usually quiet.It also has a tendancy to dislike dogs of the same sex. The jrt has a very stubborn temperment. 4)The jrt is slightly smaller on average, with it's height going from anywhere between 10-15 inches(at the withers, for males). whereas the spitz is usually 13.5-14.5 inches (again at the withers, for males). 5)The jrt was bred for sport. and as a terrier has nearly unlimited energy (known as wind). The japanese spitz will always be up for a walk, but is clearly no match for the endurance of a jrt when it comes to any kind of physical activity lasting longer than a few minutes.
