I’m a dog trainer – there’s a breed that’s gold tier for entertainment but totally mad, new owners should avoid them

Picking the right dog to add to your family can be a tricky task that raises lots of questions from how easy they are to train to how much walking they need.

Fortunately, Iain and Jacob, two dog trainers from Yorkshire discuss which dog breeds are their favourites.

Speaking on the Caffeine and Canine podcast, the two sat down to discuss which breeds they loved and which they would avoid.

Jacob said: Today everyone, we’re playing Doggy Bingo.”

The pair get a breed and have to say what they really think of each pooch.

The dog experts first discuss the King Charles Spaniel with Iain saying they were unproblematic and ‘don’t cause much beef.’

But Iain was quick to point out that they often die young due to health problems such as enlarged brains.

The brains of these pups are often too big for the skull causing the fluid of the brain to not circulate properly.

Next on the list was the English Bull Terrier with Iain quick to note it was a ‘legendary’ dog.

Both Iain and Jacob put the dog in the gold category as Iain said they were ‘funny characters.’

Jacob added: They’re f***ing mad though aren’t they?”

“Funny story my mum used to tell me they were Pit Bulls and to never go near one, that they were banned, so I was terrified of them.

“Until I was a dog trainer and actually you guys are pretty fun.”

“Gold tier for entertainment, but would you recommend one?” he asked Iain.

“Not for a novice,” replied Iain who said they can be quite nippy and need to be trained properly.

The PDSA says that the English Bull Terrier is a relatively easy breed to train however, owners should know they have very high energy levels so need to be kept entertained.
