Description

The Chinook is a powerful and majestic breed known for its thick, double coat and distinctive markings. Originally bred as sled dogs, they are strong and athletic. Despite their size, they can be gentle and affectionate with their families. However, their high energy levels and strong work ethic require experienced owners who can provide adequate exercise and mental stimulation. Early socialization and training are crucial to ensure they are well-adjusted and obedient.
