11 Popular Dog Breeds That Many People Buy Without Any Prior Knowledge and Later Regret

Normally, only one main reason prevents people from buying a dog: the famous “I want to, but I can’t”. And there are many reasons for this: allergy to animal hair, the birth of a child and lack of financial conditions and time, among others. However, sometimes there are those who forget all the negative factors and do not thoroughly research the peculiarities of the breed they want to acquire. After all, some are easier to train, while others need a professional trainer. And the education of the four-legged friend is fundamental, because, otherwise, he can be disobedient, aggressive, destroy the house and even destabilize the harmony of the home.

We, from incredible.club, we emphasize that when you take an animal home you acquire a colossal responsibility and many concerns. Therefore, we decided to warn about some nuances of popular breeds that many people buy without researching, and then end up abandoning the pet. Check out!

Siberian husky puppies are very reminiscent of adorable wolf pups, with those blue eyes and furry body. However, when they grow up, they become very active and playful, and the lack of physical activity can cause them to start messing up indoors. In addition, breeders of this breed complain about the appetite unbridled of the dog, as well as the great loss of coat, which if not properly treated can cause tons of hair to appear around the house. Even if you clean it every day, it will be in vain – it will keep falling off.

“Don’t be seduced by those beautiful blue eyes. Naturally, the husky is used to pulling sleds along with its companions. When I bought my bitch Runa, I had to quit my job for a while, because otherwise she would destroy the apartment herself. Our entire family stopped wearing slippers at home because Runa ate them all. The only way to go for a walk was on a leash – she would growl at the dogs, chase the cats, love to eat garbage and constantly try to get away. In addition, she at night howls like a wolf. And she also loves to create ‘hiding places’ — we always find bones in the closet or under our pillows”, shared an internet user about her experience with a Siberian husky.

Another netizen also shared his experience, and dogs of this breed will undoubtedly be delighted to give your home interior a makeover: “The Siberian husky has interior designer skills. Mine started its makeover down the kitchen hallway, ripping off the wallpaper. I, of course, finished the job. He loves rearranging all the furniture he can move (kitchen table, chairs, bedside table). Furthermore, the husky chews on everything, not just shoes🇧🇷 He loves unwinding the balls of thread, running away with his new jeans, tearing up his girlfriend’s pantyhose. Trying to fight this, I bought several different toys. Rubber balls are destroyed in 2-3 days, a tennis ball only lasts a day.”

Another netizen adds: “Definitely, if you want to renovate the apartment, but you can’t, you need to get a dog, give preference to a Siberian husky”.

This breed can be an efficient guard dog and a loving member of the family. However, you need a person with a strong pulse nearby. Sometimes women and children cannot handle a rottweiler. In addition, the breed has a history of aggression and disobedience. Most of the time, it is a reflection of the animal’s poor upbringing. And when the rottweiler offers the first sign of danger, many owners can’t handle it and are already looking for a new home for the dog.

“I started living with a guy, and he immediately wanted to ‘take the next step’ in our relationship so we could become one big family. Children weren’t on the cards yet, but he always dreamed of having a Rottweiler. I achievedr buying him was not a problem, but educating him, caring for him and being committed to this mission — it all takes a lot of time, effort and money🇧🇷 We sincerely try to do this together. But that doesn’t change the fact that things were broken and the floor was always dirty. So everything was piling up. Soon the tours, education and food became my responsibility. And then followed a story that my boyfriend hated the animal. The last straw was when our dog got out of the cage and chewed his slipper which cost 15 reais. I locked her in the room and watched as the man who wanted a dog so much exploded in rage around the house. Happy Birthday to me! Now I have a rottweiler to raise and I even heard a “You traded me for a dog”, shared an internet user about her experience.

A woman has a shelter for rottweilers and other abandoned animals: “I am not prejudiced against young people, but I believe that if a person is responsible, then he is responsible from a young age. I make a lot of allowances for 22-23 year old girls. If a dog is well raised, it doesn’t matter how big it is, it walks on a leash, obeys its owner and doesn’t drag her around. In addition, it is easier for young people, because if they do not know something, just ask, they do not hesitate to write, call and ask questions about how to educate the dog. And when adults under the age of 50 come, I ask: ‘When you go on vacation, where will the dog stay?’, they usually answer: ‘Well, we don’t know’. I continue: ‘You need to walk with him twice a day, regardless of the weather.’ 🇧🇷Oh, do I need to wake up at 6 am? Okay, I’ll think about it’🇧🇷 They go away and never come back.”

This giant breed is often used as a guard dog on private property, but after it gets older, people will find it difficult to bring such a huge animal into the apartment. Furthermore, if the dog has lived all its life in an open area, most of the time it will not be able to get used to the cramped environment of an apartment, which is why it is very difficult to accommodate it after it reaches a certain age. This breed is difficult to get along with, needs love and attention, and most importantly, must understand who owns the house.

This account proves the importance of proper breeding: “A woman showed up at the dog breeders’ club begging for someone to adopt her year-and-a-half-year-old Central Asian Shepherd Dog. She had all the documents, a wonderful pedigree, she was beautiful. The main problem is that the woman devoted little time to him. And the time she invested with was not in education, but just pure affection, concessions and other care. The animal has never been trained. As a result, he decided to take the place of leader of his small pack. And his owner, for not imposing herself, was unable to reverse the situation. And now—attention—the main question: who was willing to keep a year-and-a-half grown dog? That’s right, nobody.”

“My husband is a trainer. Once, a potential client called and, after negotiations, brought a five-month-old puppy, a female Central Asian Shepherd Dog, for training and boarding, while the man renovated the house and built a poultry farm. The first month flowed as agreed, we trained the animal, the owner attended the training and paid correctly. The second started with late arrivals to classes and delays in bank transfers. On the third, he was amazed at the size of the dog, brought a bag of bones instead of money for food. After that, he just disappeared. We spent a month calling and the guy didn’t answer, we expected him to come get the dog, but he didn’t show up. All of our friends suggested that we sell her, but my husband was so used to her that he adopted her. The bitch grew up to be a beautiful, smart, well-trained dog. Athena is nine years old and we still cannot understand how someone abandons their animal”, shared an internet user.

The bulldog’s appearance might scare off any potential intruders, but that’s about all he’s capable of. After decades of breeding, the bulldog has lost much of its ferocity. Nowadays, it is a dog that is very dependent on its owner, and having it at home is comparable to taking care of a baby. Because of their physiology, bulldogs require a lot of dedication, starting with the need for a regular massage, as this breed cannot scratch itself, much less lick itself, and ends up needing daily grooming.

Keeping a bulldog can be quite expensive. Many have health problems and are also averse to intense physical exertion. 🇧🇷If I knew how much I would spend on a veterinarian, I would hardly buy an English bulldog. In three years we’ve already had an operation to remove an adenoma on the upper eyelid, he’s already had some serious bouts of chronic cystitis, a sunstroke and a cesarean section — females can’t give birth by themselves to puppies that have big heads. In addition, Samanta has dysplasia in the limbs” — shared an internet user about his experience with the English bulldog.

One of the most well-known and beloved breeds in the world, mainly due to its compact size. But few people expect to have a mischievous dog in the house. The bad behavior of the dachshund is the result of little physical activity and, if he is idle, be prepared for real confusion within your home. Therefore, people who acquire this breed and expect a dog that stays quiet on the couch are disappointed.

Here is one of the most recurrent criticisms of sausages: “In the spring, we decided to get a dog. We chose a dachshund. At first everything was more or less fine: attempts to chew the wires, poop out of place and a cry at dawn, but we thought it was because it was a puppy. We tried to get him used to doing his business on the mat in the bathroom, but he always did it in the wrong place when we weren’t around. His love for yarn only grew as time passed.🇧🇷 We bought lots of toys, bones—but of course he preferred the wires. The internet cable, two of my chargers, my husband’s headset — they were all destroyed by him. That he was still very active just wasn’t for us. Tired of the situation, we had to hand it over to better hands.”

However, all these difficulties do not subside even for those who know well who they are dealing with. “This is a smart, sassy, ​​conceited breed. But very emotional. We live in a wooden house, with wood heating, in winter it’s warm just by the fireplace, but…
