• Our Chinese rescue is overwhelmingly border collie/Belgian shepherd (a couple of % 'other', but breeds didn't show in the DNA test). She is not ball-obsessed, which may have summat to do with spending her first couple of years in Hong Kong, not being allowed off-lead anywhere. But she will play with it on occasion, just for a couple of minutes.

    She has always guarded, and will bark the house down if anyone new comes in, or comes to the door, or a bird lands in a tree down the street. She is almost 10 now, generally a very chill pup, a bit reticent with most other dogs, but when she chooses to play with them, she'll run around like she's a year old. She is, obviously, the best dog in the world.

    Don't know much about malamutes and what that breed would bring to the mix.
