I'm looking into getting another dog. I already have a seven year old medium sized American Eskimo. She's kind, laid back, but playful, outgoing, and protective of my family %26amp; me, but non-aggressive. She's never attackted another human or animal. Once she gets used being around a dog (or person) she's fine. No barking, growling, etc.
So, are any of the dogs listed:
compatible with other dogs %26amp; humans?
Agressive and do they bite people?
Playful?
Do any of them need regular grooming (besides brushing, washing, but as in hair cutting, etc)?
Do they have certain diets?
Do they bark alot (besides when someone's at the door or something)?
Are they good guard dogs?
etc.
If you have input for one dog or all four, it would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Cardigan Welsh Corgi, Norwich Terrier, Papillon, Silky Terrier dog: Pros %26amp; cons about them?
Compatible: All breeds can be compatible or not depending on the age purchased and the temperament of the individual. You can get anti-socials and lovers with in the same litter.
Aggressive: Dogs tend to mimic their pack members so if you have a friendly Eski, she should pass that down to the new pup by association. Corgi's may get nippy as it is what they were bred to do, herd by nipping. Depends on your training methods whether you can teach her to suppress the urge.
Playful: I've never met a healthy puppy that wasn't playful, it's natural for pups to want to play.
Grooming: Corgis shed in over-drive. The other 3 shed minimumly in comparison. All dogs require full grooming (bath and everything) at least once a season. All dogs benefit from regular grooming (brushing) at least every couple of days. The Norwich can take some clipping, the Silky is sometimes clipped because the coat can get a little long and is capable of matting without regular brushing. The Pappy can mat in some spots as well. Normally the Corgi doesn't mat.
Diets: The best diet is a raw diet, beyond that, all dogs do best on a premium commercial pet food. You could match the food to the size of dog you choose, whether you go for a toy size dog or a medium size dog, foods are now being formulated as breed specific for some of the most popular pure breds. If you go commercial pet food, always read the ingredient list and do not choose a food that has a grain listed first. Dogs are carnivores and need a diet consisting mostly of meat.
Barking: Pappys can be yappers. Terriers can be vocal as well. It's up to you to train the dog for good house manners, including not barking excessively in the house OR outside. No neighborhood likes a non-stop barker.
Guard dogs: I wouldn't say any of these breeds have much guard dog potential but people don't truly need an attack dog when they have 2 or more dogs. Usually dogs will deter thieves because they don't want to be detected while they are breaking in. If you are looking for guard dog potential, the main three are normally German Shepherd, Doberman and Rottweiler. Less known but often preferred in law enforcement is the Belgian Malinois. They are smaller and faster than the other three. There are many more breeds that also guard but these are the most common in USA.

Contrary to an old perception that a visit to the salon is purely for luxury because of the usually high cost of service, nowadays there are beauty salons that offer affordable beauty services. However be extra careful in choosing a low-priced salon service for along with the cheap cost comes a second-rate service whose end result may not be in harmony with what you expect.
