More and more people are raising dogs, but Xiaomeng found that before many owners wanted to raise a dog, they just checked Douyin to see which dog was cuter and then adopted it. Many people on the Internet raise popular dog breeds such as golden retrievers, Labradors, Teddy dogs, and Corgis. However, just by watching cute pet videos, owners may be confused and end up with a dog that is not suitable for them. dog.

Xiao Mengjun is going to take everyone to know the popular dog breeds today, and see what are their advantages and disadvantages, so that owners can better understand enthusiastic dog breeds.

1. Golden Retriever

After raising a warm-hearted golden retriever, many girls said that what a boyfriend is, is it as warm-hearted as my golden retriever? Golden retrievers have a friendly personality, high IQ and are easy to train, so they are very suitable as family dogs. If there are children at home, Golden Retrievers will take care of the children as if they were their own.

The disadvantage is that the golden retriever needs a lot of exercise and needs to be taken out for a walk for about 2 hours a day. It also sheds like crazy, which would be a problem if someone in the family is allergic to dog hair.

 2. Labrador

Labradors are pretty bad in foreign countries, but their owners like to keep them, mainly because they have such good personalities. Like golden retrievers, Labradors have a friendly personality and are highly intelligent and easy to train. If trained well, they will even help you get your slippers. Compared with golden retrievers, Labradors are more silly, but they will bring endless happiness to their families.

The disadvantage is: the amount of exercise is very large, and it takes about 2 hours to walk the dog a day. When I was little, I was very naughty and loved to tear down the house. I was like a little devil. If I don’t correct myself, I might continue to tear down the house when I grow up. She sheds hair, and Labradors still have short needle-like hair, which is easy to get stuck in clothes.

3. Teddy

Teddy is actually a shape, and its real name is poodle. Poodles are small in size, require little exercise, have the second highest IQ, shed less hair, and have low body odor. These advantages make them the darling of the city. Many office workers who don’t have time to walk their dogs will choose Teddy, and just take them out for an hour a day.

The disadvantages are: too smart, the owner is easily fooled by it; it is easy to be pampered and arrogant. The smart Teddy knows how to break the owner's bottom line little by little. If the owner is too pampering, it will not even treat you as its owner; Timid and loud, Teddy is quite sensitive and may bark incessantly at the slightest sound outside, making it easy for neighbors to complain.

 4. Corgi

Corgi’s short legs and peach butt are simply adorable to the core. He is very smart, but he may not always listen to his master!

The shortcomings are: Corgi has a lot of shortcomings.The hair is severe, falling out twice a year, once every half a year; the Corgi exercises a lot, and as a cattle dog, the amount of exercise should not be underestimated. Long body and short legs, the spine and joints are prone to disease; stubborn, although very smart, but sometimes just disobedient, the owner can't do anything about it;

5. French fight

The owner of a French bulldog will feel like he is raising pigs. Because French Dou is really lazy and doesn't like sports, it's simply good news for lazy people. He looks cute and cute, which is also one of Fa Dou's cute features.

The disadvantages are: poor skin, it is easy to suffer from skin diseases, and they relapse as soon as the medicine is stopped; there are many genetic diseases, and as a short-nosed dog breed, there are many diseases that are susceptible to it. In short, it is a "pig" that is easy to get sick. !

 6. Husky

Since the three sledding fools are all similar, let’s take the husky as a typical example. Huskies can capture the hearts of many owners just by virtue of their wolf-like face. But it doesn’t rely on looks, it relies on emoticons. This dog has a lot of fun to play and will bring a lot of joy to the family. At the same time, Huskies are very friendly to people and have a high tolerance for children.

The disadvantage is: it exercises a lot, and if it doesn’t exercise enough, it will tear the house apart! Although it is smart, it is extremely stubborn. It will not listen to the owner’s words and will not do anything after hearing it. The impatient owner will easily get angry and develop high blood pressure. Dogs with double coats have severe hair loss!

Every kind of dog has its own unique charm. If you like a certain characteristic of it, you must also tolerate its shortcomings, otherwise you will not be happy raising a dog. If you are looking for a dog that is easy to raise, Xiao Mengjun still recommends the Chinese Pastoral Dog. First-time dog owners can start with Chinese Garden Dogs. After all, they are in good health and smart, making them suitable for novice owners.
