Frenchie’s, Bulldogs and pugs first. Then the violent breeds, then the Chihuahuas.
I also think Huskys need serious warning labels for people wanting to own them domestically. They’re notoriously difficult and will destroy your house if under stimulated. You basically need a stay at home owner and two walks a day to stop them eating your couch. People are like “awww they’re so cute the way they awoo” but God damn they’re stubborn and pig headed.
I have a husky and never experienced any of that except the awoo woo woo. He might be a outlier but he is one of the most relaxed dogs I’ve ever owned. As long as he is by my side he is chill, and he never destroyed any furniture either. Do I have the world’s chillest husky? I do live in the country and he can come and go as he pleases and I take him on walks and camping a lot so maybe we should have a warning for people getting dogs that they need to take care of them…?
Well if he gets bored in your house he can just go outside instead of tearing up your house. But not every dog can or is allowed to go outside when they want to.
So you live in one of those situations where a husky makes sense.
My husky is also chill af. She was destructive at first (would chew up shoes), but damn near any dog can be until you break them of separation anxiety. The most difficult thing with her is keeping a handle on her when out for a walk and a cat or another dog crosses her path. She gets excited and wants to play/give chase and I gotta reign her in with the big handle on the harness. She’s also far less bullheaded than my chihuahua mix. He’s a willful little shit and it takes twice as much direction to get him to obey.
It’s not a bad dog issue, it’s that the majority of owners don’t have the time or the effort to put into giving one a good life…and with this breed their needs are higher than most.
Like, do you have a backyard for it to run in. Or do you live in an apartment and work a 9-5 where it’s locked inside?
Chihuahuas aren’t even the worst of the bunch.
