As it happens, Chinooks are dog workhorses. Their speed and power were developed to be United States' transporters. Men have big, strong physique as well as weight of 90 pounds and a height of 26 inches. They are reportedly committed, patient, intelligent, and easy to teach. Arthur Treadwell Walden, trying to find the ideal working friend, developed these unusual sled dogs in New Hampshire. Among sled dog breeds, their tawny-colored coat and smart demeanour help them to be quickly identifiable. Chinooks create a special working dog that thrives in many activities by combining the endurance of Nordic sled dogs with the strength of mastiff-type breeds. Their great sledding skills and kind demeanour towards family members are well-known. Though they have a working background, they are great family members who show kids patience and a cool head indoors. Though they need frequent exercise and mental stimulation to remain happy and well-adjusted, their intellect and drive to please make them quite trainable.
