Well, it's funny that you should ask this. Of course the Northern Inuit supporters will tell you that it is Canis familiaris, that is if they are intelligent enough to even know this nomenclature. But what they're hiding is the fact that their "dogoid" is actually Canis familiaris x Canis lupus,in other words, a wolf hybrid of varying percentages.

Most Inuits get their dogs from breeders, or buy a female and breed it themselves to save money This is a totally bogus answer written by someone who knows NOTHING about Inuit, the north or their dogs! First of all, there is NO SUCH WORD AS "INUITS"! The word "Inuit" is already plural. "Inuk" is singular. Inuit have had Inuit Dogs for thousands of years. The breed, although in low numbers, exists in many communities of the circumpolar north as part of traditional working dog teams. Team owners are willing to share their dogs genetic material with other serious dog team owners.

Where do Inuit dogs come from?

Inuit dogs, also known as Canadian Eskimo dogs, originate from the Arctic regions of North America, particularly among the Inuit peoples of Canada and Greenland. They were bred for their strength, endurance, and ability to work in harsh climates, serving as sled dogs, hunting companions, and protectors. These dogs are descendants of ancient Arctic dog breeds brought by the Thule culture around 1,000 years ago. Their unique adaptations make them well-suited for life in extreme cold and challenging terrains.
