Honey is a working dog. Chinooks are from Alaska, bred for mushing.
Anyways, as most of you might know, I keep my poochies outside. But, not every breed is a good outside breed. For example, a hound mix usually doesnt have a thick enough coat to be out in the winter. I do not like it when people with single coat dogs keep them outside. Exp. with an uninsulated house with little straw.
Also, I do not like roaming dogs. There are way to many dangers. Cars, antifreeze, people other animals, etc. If you're going to have an outside dog, you need to have a safe enclosure, and provide the dog with plenty of exersize. I am training my pups to free run, but I always supervise them when doing this, and constantly working on recalls. But, if I lived on a busy road, or an area with other people, or dogs, I wouldnt do this.
Just a few of my thoughts...
