Commenting under a Reddit post, user WinterAndFallBird explained their reasoning for naming each breed.
For their first recommendation, the pet sitter advised potential owners to steer clear of the Australian Cattle Dog.
They pointed out that this breed “needs constant exercise or they become terrors.”
“If you don’t train these guys they could become really aggressive.”
However, they added that they have “met sweetheart ones” and the the breed “just needs to be run out constantly.”
“A walk around the block — or even several blocks — is not enough exercise for most cattle dogs,” warned the experts at the Australian Cattle Dog Rescue Association.
The professional dog sitter also named huskies as a “high energy” breed.
They went on to call the popular breed “so loud” and pointed out a behavior issue they've seen crop up several times.
“Every time I bring my dog to a dog park, the husky is always the one to try to pick a fight with my dog,” the Redditor said.
Experts at Be Chewy explained the behavior issues associated with huskies.
They referenced the breed's “excessive vocalization” as one of the main problems.
The poster also warned potential owners against taking a Chihuahua into their home.
“I have yet to meet one that hasn’t tried to bite my ankles off, also just not a fan, they explained.
The professionals at Medium broke down the most common complaints relating to the tiny breed.
Included on the long list were “destructive chewing, biting, and nipping.”
Signs your dog could turn dangerous
Dr. Sara Ochoa has been practicing veterinary medicine for over five years.
She told The U.S. Sun observing a dog's behavior can provide clues that they might act out.
“A dog that looks tense all over with its fur sticking up or teeth showing is more likely to snap,” she said.
“Staring real hard without blinking could mean trouble too.
“Growling is also a warning the dog is getting mad.”
She said dogs may tuck their tail between their legs when they feel scared or threatened.
“Staying calm and keeping space may help things not to escalate if a dog seems on edge,” she said.
Finally, they revealed the reason why they would never own a Shiba Inu.
“Every one I have ever come across is so mean and I’m so traumatized by one chasing me when I was a kid,” they said.
Canine professionals at Your Pure Bred Puppy listed the breed's most common issues.
They revealed Shiba Inus are known to show “aggression toward other dogs and cats” as they have “strong chasing instincts.”
