I have to say it's how you treat them and look after them. I have 3 from puppy and have had no problems whatsoever with them. They do need exercise but that is not until they are 18 months old, allowing their bones to develop. Exercise also doesn't mean 2 hours of walking a day in can be broken up and by playing with them. Often mine prefer that as they get to interact with you.
I have actually had people round who have been amazed at the behaviour as they expected scatty, bouncy, uncontrolable Huskies, when in fact they just came in had cuddles and settled down.
I also have 3 Shar-Pei (chinese fighting dog). And we all live together happily. They are all pets and not kenneled. We do have them all in the house together or individually and they do not steal or cause damage.
They also respect our stuff, e.g remotes, d.s's, peppa pig characters, board games - basically mess that the kids leave on the floor, and they will never take it, if it's not their's.
They are amazing dog's and aren't developed like a domesticated dog, but like with all dog's esp from puppy it's usually the owner/family that cause the problems.
Please let me know if you need any info.
