Hello, and welcome to the community! This is a dedicated space for everyone who loves the Japanese Spitz—that adorable, inquisitive and endlessly charismatic breed. Whether you're a proud owner, a longtime enthusiast or simply curious about these fluffy companions, we're glad you're here.

I'm Gary, and I launched this site because our breed deserves better than scattered Facebook posts and misinformation. Here, nothing gets lost:

• Searchable. Find anything using the search function, so you can reference and track discussions at any time.

• Organised. Health, training, grooming, breeders, photos—all in their own corner, not buried under three weeks of comments.

• Open. No algorithm deciding who sees your question, and no account required to read most parts of the site.

• Recommended. Offering a curated selection of the best food and products picked by Japanese Spitz owners and breeders, with member discounts offered on this site.

Fancy a wider look? Our sister site, Aspen's Pantry, is our online shop for the highest quality pet foods and nutritious treats, comfortable bedding and essential health products—for all dog breeds and other pets. As a member here, you'll have a place to compare notes with other owners on what actually earns a spot in the cupboard. Join the discussion in our What's your favourite food brand? poll!

Come explore the charm and uniqueness of these delightful snow-white fur balls, whether you're a Japanese Spitz owner or just here for the food!
