A veterinarian with 10 years experience has shared a list of the top 10 dog breeds she'd own based on their needs and personality. Saddy, who is known as @saddy542020 on TikTok, has taken to social media to educate her followers on what to expect when they welcome a dog into their home. While she acknowledges every breed has its pros and cons, she says these 10 are her favourites for a variety of reasons - including their overall temperament and what the positives they could bring to your life.
In her caption, she said: "We see lots of posts about breeds vet professionals wouldn't own, and while I agree with the majority of them, I feel like it’s time to see the opposite of the narrative! All breeds have their unique personalities and health issues, but that shouldn’t be the end all, be all. Again, this is personal preference based on personal experience and others don’t have to agree." To start, the vet says a golden retriever is an all-round good option because they're the "definition of man's best friends".
She says they're "extremely versatile, eager to please" and have the "best smoosh faces". Next up, she names pitbull terriers as a go-to thanks to being "powerful but gentle". She says the come with "scary dog privilege" and are a favourite amongst vets thanks to their loving personalities.
Turning her attention to greyhounds, Saddy says they're a "gentle and sweet natured" breed, who love nothing more than spending time on the sofa after a quick run around outsid.
