Color
Pure white is the preferred color, although white with biscuit cream is
permissible. Presence of biscuit cream should not outweigh consideration
of type, structure, or temperament. The skin of the American Eskimo Dog is
pink or gray. Disqualification: any color other than white or biscuit
cream.
