I'd like to find out what the temperament of a dog bred from these two breeds is like. Thanks!

Cheers, I think he’s got a bit of Husky in him because he turns the house upside down and chews everything when he’s left on his own. He’s six and a half months old and I’ve only just taken him in; do you think I can still train him?
He’ll take more after the temperament of one or the other; if you’re thinking of getting a dog from this cross, you’ll need to do your research on both breeds first as they’re very different. The Husky is incredibly high-energy, built for pulling over long distances, has a high prey drive, is independent and a real escape artist. If he doesn’t get enough exercise, he’ll turn your house upside down! The White Swiss Shepherd is very sensitive and needs proper socialisation; he’s not quite as athletic as the Husky but still needs plenty of activity, and is fairly obedient...
It’s impossible to tell, as a crossbreed inherits a mix of traits from both parents, both physically and temperamentally. A cross like that is likely to need loads of exercise; that’s the only thing you can pretty much guarantee. On the other hand, when it comes to personality, they are two completely different—even opposite—breeds. You’re looking for very different things in a Northern breed compared to a shepherd.
