The Canadian Eskimo Dog is an Arctic breed of working dog. Other names include qimmiq or qimmit (Inuit language word for 'dog'). The Canadian Eskimo Dog should always be powerfully built, athletic, and imposing in appearance. It should be of 'powerful physique giving the impression that he is not built for speed but rather for hard work.' Solid white dogs are often seen, as well as white dogs with patches of another colour on the head or both body and head. Solid silver or black coloured dogs are common as well. Many of the solid coloured dogs have white mask-like markings on the face, sometimes with spots over the eyes.
