Alaskan Malamutes can be dominant and are somewhat known for being escape artists. As puppies they tend to teeth on either your possesions or your family, but as they get older teeth are replaced with stronger adult teeth and their jaws get stronger. I myself have a big dog, but I know I can trust him. I suggest getting a more 'been there done that dog'. Preferably about 2+ years. But, if your main concern is getting a new family member that you want for a decent amount of time, maybe consider a great paranese. My dog is a mix of border collie and great paranese. He's big and fluffy and very loveable. Border collie and great paranese are two VERY smart breeds and also very fluffy, so you would need to get your new pal shaved at the start of summer every year, but it's worth it to keep the big guy/gal happy. I love my dog and I'm sure you will too no matter which breed you decide to add to your family. <3
