What is the difference between Eskimo dogs and silver foxes? Eskimo dogs have three size types, and silver foxes have only one standard size. Overall, silver foxes are smaller. The Japanese Silver Fox has a longer face, while the Eskimo Dog has a rounder face and a wider nose. Silver foxes do not have the double coat that American Eskimos do.

There are three sizes of Eskimo (size refers to shoulder height): toy type, 9 inches ~ 12 inches (including 12 inches); small type, 12 inches ~ 15 inches (including 15 inches); standard type, 15 ~ 19 inches (Including 19 inches).

There is only one standard body shape of silver fox (male height is 33~38cm, female height is 30~36cm; male and female weight are 6.4~7.7kg.)

The Japanese Silver Fox Dog is smaller in size and has a longer face. American Eskimo dogs are larger (but there are also smaller ones), with a rounder face and a wider nose.
