So compared to other spitz breeds, how tough is it to own a Samoyed (experience welcomed)?

Alaskan Malamutes are pretty tough to handle, so if you have a 3 y/o Mally, a Sibe or a Sammy probably wouldn't ruffle your feathers much either way. From my experience with Samoyed at work, though, they tend to bark much more than other spitz/northern draft breeds and seem to display a lot of herding behavior rather than the typical "aloof" behavior of their cousins.
