Samoyed dogs were first discovered in the Siberian region of Russia, specifically among the Samoyedic people, who relied on these dogs for herding reindeer and pulling sleds. Their origins date back several thousand years, with evidence suggesting they were present as early as 3,000 years ago. The breed was officially recognized in the late 19th century when they began to gain popularity outside their native region.

Yes, there is a big difference. An American Eskimo Dog is similar to a Samoyed and different in many ways. One of the big ones is that an Eskie is much, much smaller in size than a Samoyed is. They do sort of look alike, though. I own a Samoyed myself, and they are completely different dogs.
