The name Samoyed originates from the Samoyed tribe in northern Russia and Siberia, and originated in the 17th century. The original Samoyed dog was bred by the Samoyed nomadic tribes that now settle in the polar region east of the Ural Mountains. In the south of the region, they used white, black, and brown variegated dogs to herd reindeer; in the north, these dogs were pure white and mild-mannered and were used as hunting dogs and sled dogs. Samoyeds live close to their owners, and they even sleep in shelters and are used as heaters.

In 1889, the British zoologist Ernest Kilburn Scott spent three months in the Samoyote tribe. Back in England, he brought with him a brown male puppy named "Sapalka"; later he introduced a cream-colored female dog called "White-skinned Parrot" from the western side of the Ural Mountains and a pure white male dog from Siberia called "Musti". These dogs and the dogs brought by the explorers are the ancestors of the modern Samoyed dog. At the end of the 19th century, fur traders imported the dog into the United States and Europe. The dog then spread to England and was loved for its snow-white coat. In the early 20th century, during the boom of Arctic exploration, this dog provided a lot of help to explorers because of its innate characteristics. For example, in 1911, a group of Samoyed dogs accompanied the Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen to the South Pole.
Queen Alexandra of Denmark, Queen of England (1844-1925), was a passionate Samoyed dog lover, whose descendants appear in many kennels in Britain and the United States today.

On 26 June 1959, the World Dog Federation FCI recognized the Samoyed as an independent breed.
