Took a few dog breed quizes and the Chinook keeps coming up as the perfect breed for us? What else….?

What can you tell me about the Chinook?

Would you say the quiz was accurate?

What other breeds might be good for us?

Family: We are young in our late 20s and we have a young daughter (she will be between 3 and 5 when we get the dog), we have 2 dogs currently.

Living: Soon to move into our house. We have a medium size yard and a small-medium size house.

Exercise: Able to to dedicate two walks a day to the dog (about an hour long each) and plenty of offleash play time in the yard.

Dog will be an indoor/outdoor dog. (basically lives indoors but will have plenty of time outside when wanted)

Grooming: A good bath and brush and on your way kind of dog. (Nothing requiring a trip to the groomer)

Any other questions feel free to ask

Thanks

________________
Other breeds suggested for us:
Dalmatian
Siberian Husky
German Shorthaired Pointer
Flatcoated Retriever

Don’t believe those result, there just estimates by people who like to have fun with techniolgy, and many times there well out and downright incorrect.

An hour walk would NOT be enough for dalmation or husky!

I honestly wouldn’t have chinook around 3-5year old child

I wouldn’t have a Dalmation, or Siberian Husky EITHER wih very young children

Here are some breed that i think would suit you alot better then the Chinook, Husky, Dalmation

Flat-coated retriever
The Flat Coated Retriever has a very jolly personality. He gets along well with just about everyone, including small children and does exceptionally well with other dogs. The Flat Coated Retriever is a very intelligent breed and is eager to please, but does require something in return, human companionship and affection. This breed does not do well in a kennel environment and needs to be part of the family, although he does love the outdoors. The Flat Coated Retriever steals the hearts of everyone he meets with his fun loving, endearing, and friendly personality. He would make a wonderful companion for a family of all kinds.

Curly-coated retriever
The Curly Coated Retriever is loyal, affectionate, and sensitive. This breed does well with children, other dogs, and pets. They are aloof and reserved with strangers, but will only show aggression if they sense threatening danger. Curly Coated Retriever’s are an extremely well-mannered breed, proud, and friendly.

Golden Retriever
Golden Retrievers are loveable, polite, and highly intelligent. They exude charm and confidence. They are sweet, eager to please, and devoted family companions. They do not do well if left alone for extended periods of time or they will become mischievous and destructive. They have a tendency to be overly exuberant and distractible. They are always gentle and patient with children. They are friendly with other pets. In fact, they are friendly with everyone. They tend to bark as a form of greeting. The Golden Retriever is not well suited for a two career family as they require an inordinate amount of human interaction and companionship.

Labrador
This breed is highly intelligent, loyal, and deeply devoted. The Labrador Retriever is reliable, affectionate, and thrive on human companionship and attention. They are absolutely wonderful with children and get along exceedingly well with other dogs. They may be reserved with strangers and make good watchdogs. If this breed is left alone for extended periods of time without attention or stimulation they will become lonely, bored, and destructive.

Bassethound
Affectionate, lazy, devoted, quiet, and peaceful, the Basset Hound does exceptionally well with a family. This breed loves children, and generally does well with other animals. They can be taught tricks, but tend to be stubborn so patience is key.

Boxer
The Boxer is patient, dignified, and self-assured. They exhibit curiosity, but are wary of strangers. This breed is fearless and courageous if threatened. They are keenly alert and have a heightened sense of hearing, which make them excellent guard dogs. The Boxer adores children and other pets they have been raised with. They have an inordinate need for human companionship and do not like to be alone for extended periods of time. They are not well suited for a two career family. Insufficient attention may lead them into “bad” behavior in an attempt to be noticed.

Samoyed
This dog has the tendency to bark quite a bit, and will alert you when someone is approaching. Does not do well with smaller and more passive animals, but can do well with cats and other dogs. The Samoyed is very friendly and does well with children.

American Eskimo Dog
Bred solely to be companions, the American Eskimo Dog thrives on being part of the family. This charming and playful breed is excellent with children, and loves to be lavished with attention. They are suspicious and wary of strangers and make good guardians of their family and home. They love to bark and will sound the alarm whenever they deem it necessary. This breed does not do well if left alone for extended periods of time or if they are isolated, as they will engage in destructive activities

Standard Poodle
One of the most popular breeds in the world, the Poodle is loyal and deeply devoted to their owner and family. They thrive on human companionship and are extremely sensitive to their familys moods and emotions. The Poodle may become overly attached to one particular family member and suffer from separation anxiety. The Standard and Miniature varieties are typically more amiable than the Toy variety, which has a tendency to be neurotic. The Standard does well in a home with children and other household pets. The Miniature and Toy varieties are best suited for homes with older, considerate children. The Poodle is reserved with strangers and makes a good watchdog. This breed has a tendency to bark excessively.

Cavalier King Charles Spaniel
The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is best suited for a pampered indoor life. They display the temperament of an extrovert. They can be quite spirited and vocal. The Cavalier prefers to be with their family or other dogs. Although this breed is gentle and affectionate, they do not have patience for unruly children.

Clumber Spaniel
Of the hunting breeds, the Clumber Spaniel is the most low-key and easy-going. They are gentle, sweet, and highly intelligent. A pleasant and well-behaved dog, they get along with other dogs, cats, and other household animals they are raised with. They typically become attached to one specific person in their family. Clumber Spaniels are generally good with children. They do not easily befriend strangers, but are never timid or aggressive. This breed greatly enjoys human companionship and attention.

Welsh Springer Spaniel
This breed is affectionate, happy, and excellent with children. They are active, loyal, friendly, and exhibit a playful attitude. The Welsh Springer Spaniel is accepting of other pets. They may be reserved with strangers, but are not shy, timid, or aggressive. Although they are somewhat independent, this breed thrives on being included in family activities and does not do well if left alone for extended periods of time. They are amiable and trustworthy companions.

English Springer Spaniel
English Springer Spaniels are sociable, gregarious, and gentle. They are also courageous, highly intelligent, and sincere. They are excellent with children and love everyone. The English Springer Spaniel thrives on human interaction and must be with their family as much as possible. If they are left alone for extended periods of time they will become destructive and are prone to excessive barking. They are good with other pets, but may not tolerate same sex dogs. They are not suitable for homes with pet birds.

Shetland Sheepdog
High energy, active, very trainable, this breed has a well-rounded and even temperament giving him the idealistics for a household pet. The Shetland Sheepdog does well with children, but children should be properly trained to handle a dog of any breed. Used as a watch dog, this gentle breed will not attack without being repeatedly provoked so does not do well for guarding. Great for herding, this dog is still commonly used for herding purposes in a country environment and does exceptionally well.

Newfoundland
The Newfoundland has a wonderfully sweet and gentle disposition that is reflected in his kind expression. This gentle and good-natured giant dog is great with children and makes a terrific family dog. Toddlers should be supervised carefully as one slurp from his big tongue could knock a little one over. Newfs are quite intelligent and can be trained fairly easily using praise and food rewards. Newfs and all giant breeds should be socialized and obedience trained early while puppies and through adolescence. All giant breeds must be well trained. Male Newfoundlands can be a little more independent than females. Newfs need lots of companionship and need to be involved in family activities. Some Newfs are shy but generally get along very well with strangers. Newfoundlands are suitable for novice or first-time owners.

Scotch Collie
This is a good-natured, intelligent and friendly breed of dog that makes an excellent companion. The Smooth Collie is more active and athletic than the Rough-coated variety – although you can get both varieties in the same litter. Collie puppies need to be thoroughly socialized in order to build confidence. Collies need a lot of social interaction and can become noisy or destructive if left without human companionship for long periods of time. Most collies are good with children and other pets if thoroughly socialized when they are puppies. Collies can be trained to a fairly high level through the use of praise and food rewards. Collies can be very sensitive to noise and loud voices. Collies are wary of strangers and make good watchdogs. This breed does well with novice or first-time dog owners.
