Little Lebowski, husky pup.
Discussion
We inherited a young malamute 3 years ago, she was difficult, very slow to house train, always looking to advance within the now 5 dog pack, loved the old alpha male but hated the other girls. Shadow has calmed now but she confirms my view that many people pick a dog cos they look cool.......they MAY take a lot more input or maybe experience than expected, certainly, Shadow surprised me with her needs and desires. I hope she is what you want and vice versa, picking a breed for me has not always yielded the expected result but that's genetics ha ha
Not gloomy, just that some dogs are more difficult than others, similar to what my mother said about me!! She shows many natural pack dog instincts, much more strongly than any of the other dogs we have ever had. Shadow is very content in her pack, knows her place now, it just took a while to get there. She still cannot be trusted any where near kids, does not like them, don't know why, never had any bad experiences of kids.

No, not gloomy just realistic, especially if this news story is anything to go by.....https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-england-coventry-...
I wish you luck, OP, he is certainly a handsome dog.
Well we picked him up this morning, car journey home was fine (only about 25 mins) a few whines and naps.
Got home and he had a good explore round the downstairs and the back garden, again just a few whines and more naps.
As for researching the breed, my Girlfriend has wanted one for about 20 years and is all clued up.

words fail me. What an absolutely stunning animal.Got home and he had a good explore round the downstairs and the back garden, again just a few whines and more naps.

9 Weeks old now and got his first harness.
Loves a sleep (in weird positions and places)
The day we brought him home he learned sit and paw, the next day down and high five, couple of days after he figured out how to climb out of his pen.
Only a few wet accidents in a week isn't bad and the only thing he has wrecked is a couple of his toys and has taken to chewing the mat by the back door.
