Which one should I pick an American Eskimo , Siberian Husky ,Chihuahua,or a Yorkshire Terrier?

Question

American Eskimo is loving but Siberian Husky is a working dog,Chihuahua's is graceful and swift,and Yorkshire Terrier iscute as all the others,

Answer 1

Well, those dogs are all completely different from each other, so it's kind of a weird question. What is your energy level like? How much time do you have to spend with the dog? Do you have experience training and caring for a large breed?

- Husky: would be a tough one if its your first dog. They are escape artists, and stubborn (hard to train)

- Eskimo: They are sweet but all the ones I met were really skittish and nervous. There is a large market for puppy milling this breed so that may explain the bad personalities.

- Chihuahua: Loyal and loving, energy level is not excessive, although they do bark a fair amount.

- Yorkie: I have no idea about these.

Answer 2

This answer really depends on you and where you live. If you live in a home with enough space, and the weather is not always hot, then by all means get the Husky or American Eskimo. If you are wanting something smaller, due to space issues, get a Yorkshire Terrier. But I will let you know that I have known MANY people with Chihuahuas and they are RARELY housebroken. They will usually urinate in the house because their bladders are so small that it is hard for them to tell someone they need out in time. Also this causes an issue for you while you are at work or away.

I hope you have luck deciding, and please do A LOT of research and find out which one is for you. My personal preferance is a mutt from a shelter, none are more thankful for you "saving" them from being put down.

It depends on your environment. Do you live in an area that has cold winters? Then a husky or American Eskimo would be great. Chihuahua's are easy to keep inside, though, so really you could have one in a colder area, too.
Do you have kids? Then terriers are always great with kids. Chihuahua's don't necessarily appreciate children, and with larger dogs, you always have a higher risk of bite injuries.
An American Eskimo may be a good comprimise, because they tolerate weather, but are relatively small. However, they do require more grooming than a husky or Chihuahua.
To many decisions. I don't envy you, but you'll love whoever you get!

Answer 4

That really depends on what you want in a dog...

1- American Eskimos tend to be skittish and snappy.I'm sure there's some good ones out there, but I've never met one..They also have a large amount of hair-which means regular grooming and brushing..


2-Huskies shed ALOT, need a ton of exercise or else they are unhappy, are great at escaping and running away...they are made to work and if they don't they are difficult...

3-chihuahuas are sweet little dogs but i think have been over-bred and tend have lots of behavioral problems...I do like them though-just have to be careful where you get them..

Answer 5

Yorkshire Terrier

Answer 6

Chihuahua. If raised properly they can be friendly, obedient, etc. like any other dog. However chis were bred exclusively for the social aspect. The more time and love you can give a chi, the more you get back.

Yorkies tend to be a bit more inpendent minded. I've heard Huskies need a LOT of exercise so if you don't have time, then don't get this breed. I don't know much about Eskimos.

Answer 7

It all depends on your lifestyle. I had a Siberian Husky, he was an awesome dog but he had a mind of his own and a real attitude. Huskies need lots of walks, or they will just take them on their own if they get a chance and end up miles away. They never get tired! They can't be bothered playing fetch, but tug-o-war they like sometimes. My neighbour has a Yorkie and the f**** thing yaps all the time! We can hear it in our house. Huskies rarely bark.

Answer 8

You need a dog that fits your lifestyle and family. Do you have children, young or older. Do you have a large yard for large dogs to play in? Are you in an apartment? Do you have time to be home to give it a lot of attention? If you answer no to the last question, get a kitten or two! :)

I'm a dog lover, but now that I've had a kitten for the first time, my views have changed. Kittens/cats are so much easier to have around the house.

Answer 9

I would recommend the American Eskimo my family had an American Eskimo, we had her for 15 years. She was the best dog I have ever seen, very loving and loyal. My brothers and I were pretty young when we got her and she was always very gentle with us but at the same time very protective of our family.

Answer 10

I have a husky rescued from the animal shelter, who is 6 yrs, and 2 3-mth husky puppies. They are work, but they are fantastic, lovey, playful dogs. The bad part is that they shed, A LOT.
