That is typical Malamute personality. Although their appearance can be intimidating, they are ordinarily quite friendly to strange humans, although not always to strange animals. They are not "one person" dogs. In Northwest Alaska, where the Inuit relied on them for transportation, no family could keep enough dogs to form a full team for a seal, walrus or whale hunting expedition, so they relied on dogs borrowed from their neighbors. Dogs that wouldn't go with and obey someone other than their owner were, therefore, liabilities, and eliminated from the gene pool.
