Are German Spitzs friendly?

Yes, German Spitzes can be friendly and affectionate, especially with people they know and trust. However, they can be somewhat wary of strangers, a trait that stems from their history as watchdogs. 

This wariness can lead them to be cautious in new situations or around unfamiliar people. Proper socialization from an early age is crucial to help them feel more comfortable in various social settings. For some German Spitzes, while they may feel fairly comfortable navigating public spaces, they may still not enjoy being pet by strangers, so it’s important to advocate for your pup and politely decline interactions that your canine BFF is uncomfortable with.
