The Chinook's temperament is described as calm, eager to please, and friendly. That said, he's not necessarily a hail fellow well met kind of dog. He can be dignified and reserved with people he doesn't know. Females are more likely than males to be independent thinkers.
As with every dog, Chinooks need early socialization--exposure to many different people, sights, sounds, and experiences. Enrolling him in a puppy class is a great start. Another way to help him polish his social skills is to invite visitors over regularly, and take him to busy parks, stores that allow dogs, and on leisurely strolls to meet neighbors.
The Chinook is best suited to owners who have time and patience to train and socialize them, and due to their size they may not be suited for inexperienced owners.
The Berger Picard breed is not recommended for first time dog owners. The Berger Picard has a sensitive and assertive disposition, is loyal, and even-tempered. They do well with children, dogs, and other pets they have been raised with. They are alert, hard-working, and energetic. Berger Picard's do not do well if they are isolated or ignored. This breed is a devoted guardian of their family, livestock, and territory.
I'm not sure. I only known one Springer, and he is a very, very excitable dog. He likes to jump on people and bark, but he is young, and is gradually coming along in his training.In general, I think Springer Spaniels tend to be rather energetic and happy dogs. They can certainly be owned successfully by an inexperienced owner, with perhaps some guidance and work. But if you are looking for a really mellow breed, this might not be the best bet for you.
Lagotto are very smart and want to please their owners. They respond well and learn quickly using positive training methods. Lagotto require LOTS of socialization during their first 1.5 to 2 years in order to become confident adults that cope well with new places, people and things. Inadequate exposure to such things - walks through parks and town, visits to stores that permit dogs, hanging out at kids school sports events and training classes throughout that time period can result in a shy dog that is uncomfortable with change. Lagotto are non-shedding and you must either learn to use clippers and scissors or take your dog to the groomers every 6 weeks or so. If you are willing to find a breeder that will support you and to become involved in training classes on a more or less weekly basis for the first 1.5 yrs or so, then a Lagotto will be ok for an inexperienced owner. If you do not have the time or inclination to to follow through on this, then you should consider a different breed.
If you like small dogs, probably yes. They are also called Morkies.
