Samoyed noun[ C ] (alsosamoyed)uk /ˈsæm.ə.jed/ us /ˈsæm.ə.jed/ a type of large dog from Siberia in Russia that has thick white fur and is often used to pull large sledges over the snow: The smile worn by a Samoyed keeps the dog from drooling, so its saliva won't freeze on its face. The thick white coat of a samoyed helps it to withstand extremely cold temperatures. Two large Samoyeds were dutifully pulling the sledges across the expanse of snow. Samoyeds were once used for the herding of reindeer in the Siberian tundra.
