Well the germen sheperd and springer spaniel are easier to train then the husky,[depending on how expeirienced you are with dogs]For a novice owner i would recomend the springer,as the gsd needs an expeirienced owner to get the best out of it.Springers are a happy breed and very willing to please,so training if done reward based is pretty simple.They need loads of exercise though,otherwise they can learn undesired behaviours through boredom.I would suggest looking up more info on the springer and if you do get a pup in the future,book into some good training classes,which will be fun for you and your dog.Good luck.

In my opinion the Alsation (German Shepherd) is by far the easiest to train and has the best temperament. Also, in response to one of the posters above, I have been bitten by a lot of springer spaniels and huskies and I have never once been bitten by a Alsation. I have many scares on my arms and hands because of the other 2 breeds.

As a Springer owner, I'm a bit biased. I love them! I've had many dogs (although neither Alsatian nor Husky). They are easy to train, they are devoted and an absolute pleasure to watch in the field.

They do, however, need to be exercised a lot. They become very miserable if they are kept as a house dog without adequate exercise.

All great breeds.I have a springer and yes they are brill dogs but be prepared to give them a serious amount of exercise,they can work all day and soon get bored and destructive if they have time on their paws! Also check the breeding as they can be prone to sight problems,mine has lost an eye and is going blind in the other eye and she is only 7. For loyalty,being good with kids etc you can't go far wrong with a springer.

German shepherds and huskies do train well but you really do have to be in charge with these breeds as they can tend to want to rule you rather than the other way round....as a spaniel owner (working cocker) I would opt for spaniels any day...springers in particular want to work and like to learn, however, they have muchos muchos energy, love mud, water etc so you have to be prepared for long walks and lots of patience. Springers do have fantastic temperaments but do watch out for the boredom factor with them....good luck xx

Of the three breeds you mention, I would eliminate the Alsatian. Only because this breed (German Shepherd) has the highest incidence of biting in the country. A potential problem easily avoided if you don't own one! :) Despite that, they are wonderful dogs and mostly the victims of ignorant owners, the dogs are confused about their 'job' without diligent training.

Husky; great dogs, extremely affectionate, and believe it or not, very rarely aggressive. Excellent family dogs, keeping in mind that ANY large dog can accidentally injure a tiny person just by bumping them over.

Springer Spaniel; one of the true great breeds! Extremely intelligent, and most retain hunting instincts. Breeders have done damage to this breed with excessive in-breeding. This has produced lines that are hyperactive, nervous, and sometimes snappy. Still I would opt for this breed, just get one from a good breeder, and be sure that the sire and dam are there to be inspected also, you will know a tremendous amount of how your puppy will be in the future from this experience. Good breeders are happy and proud to show off their lines!

Good hunting and best wishes!

Husky is out of a question, unless you've got tons of spare time - they need to run (and I mean RUN) at least 8-10 miles a day and can be quite hard to train. Springers are OK, very clever, loving and loyal, alsatians are great choice too, very easy to train.All three breeds like children, love to play and are generally 'happy' dogs.

All three are highly intelligent and easy to train. It would depend on what you want to train them for as well, alastians are working guard dogs, huskys are sled dogs and spaniels are hunting dogs, these are inherant characteristics, meaning activities for their breed are easier to learn.
Temperament is not only dependant on the breed but on the bloodline, so try and see both parents
= Also check the pup for genetic disorders, like hip displaisure, which can become very painful for the dog and turn the mildest tempered dog into a snarling brute.
And how you treat and train your dog will also affect its temperament, a secure, well trained, well looked after dog will have a good temperament.

Basic Training of the Puppy - Read here https://tr.im/SIjnC

The new puppy is certainly one of the most adorable and cuddly creatures that has ever been created. It is the most natural thing in the world to shower it with love and affection. However, at the same time it is important to realize that if you want to have a well trained adult dog, you need to begin the training process right away. The dog, like its related ancestor, the wolf, is a pack animal. One of the features of a pack is that it has a single dominant leader. Your new puppy is going to want that leader to be you, but if you do not assume that role from the very beginning, the puppy’s instincts will push him to become the leader.

The most important thing to remember about training the puppy during its first six months of life is that it must see you as the leader of the family pack. The essential thing is gaining the trust and the respect of the puppy from the beginning. You will not do this by allowing the puppy to do whatever it wants to do whenever it wants to do it. On the other hand, a certain amount of patience is required. Most people err in their early training by going to extremes one way or the other. Although you need to begin the basic training process at once, you can not expect your dog to do too much at first. Basic obedience training is fine and should include simple commands like sit, stay, and come. Remember that trying to teach the dog advanced obedience techniques when it is a puppy is much like trying to teach a five year old child algebra.

It is also important to restrain from cruel or abusive treatment of the puppy. You can not beat obedience into your dog, and it certainly is not going to engender feeling of respect and trust. House breaking is an area where this usually becomes a problem because of the anger that is triggered when the puppy fails and creates a mess inside the home. Although this issue must be addressed without anger, it most be addressed. If you allow the puppy to eliminate inside the house, it will continue to do so as an adult dog. The same thing is true of other destructive or dangerous behavior such as chewing and biting. Do not expect the puppy to grow out of it. You are going to need to train the puppy out of it, but you should do so firmly but with a sense of play and fun using positive reinforcement and lots of love and praise for good behavior.

i would personally say springer spaniel as they have a loving temperament. They are obedient and agile. The other two breeds you mention would make good pets and can be successfully trained as long as you stick to a training programme and teach them that you are top dog!!!
