A VET has revealed the dog breeds she would never own.<\/strong><\/p>\n Veterinarian Dr Whitney Terrell explained that as a result of her job, there are a number of dog breeds that she would never own. <\/p>\n The first breed Whitney says she wouldn\u2019t own is the Chinese Crested – as she revealed that she just doesn\u2019t like hairless animals.<\/p>\n \u201cThey\u2019re zitty, they\u2019re greasy,\u201d says Whitney, \u201cthe same with cats, they kinda feel like a ball sack. It\u2019s a no from me.\u201d<\/p>\n Referring to them as ankle-biters, this vet says that Chihuahuas are not her cup of tea.<\/p>\n \u201cAfraid I\u2019m gonna get stepped on, more than likely be bit if I have one, they\u2019re usually a one person dog,\u201d she adds.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n She says that there are a few Chihuahuas who come to the surgery she works at that are nice, but the vast majority of this breed are aggressive ankle-biters.<\/p>\n \u201cSome are really cute, but they can\u2019t breathe. Literally they cannot breathe\u201d says Whitney.<\/p>\n \u201cThey snore, I\u2019ve already got a husband that snores, I don\u2019t need anything else that snores.\u201d<\/p>\n She adds that these dog breeds commonly suffer from dermatitis, have a lot of allergies and are yeasty, smelly and gassy.<\/p>\n <\/picture>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/picture>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/picture>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/picture>\n <\/span><\/p>\n These have the potential to be really great pets, but Whitney says that they can require a lot of training, which she wouldn\u2019t have the time to do due to her job.<\/p>\n She adds that \u201c95% of the ones we see in clinics want to bite your face off because they\u2019re not properly trained.\u201d<\/p>\n If you plan to get one of these dogs<\/span>, she says that you should not make the decision lightly and should be sure you have the time to train and take care of them.<\/p>\n Whitney says that in her experience these dogs are quite hyperactive and can\u2019t sit still for two seconds before needing to run around again.<\/p>\n She adds that this breed can also reguaral ear infections, so can cost quite a bit in vet bills, and on top of this they\u2019re also super expensive to have groomed.<\/p>\n \u201cJust too high maintenance for me, I\u2019d rather have a hound dog,\u201d she finishes.<\/p>\n
