Too aggressive lol. For sure need training because the majority are so aggressive because owners get them for looks without realizing what they are getting.

@@AH-hz5xc no the meaning of the word Pitbull has changed. It now means any bull dog cross terrier. There's a specific breed the original so to speak called the APBT but that's very rare and often diluted.
My first dog was a shelter rescue Beagle-Dachshund mix. He had severe separation anxiety and was a master escape artist, able to dig under most fences. He did seem to enjoy my recapturing him from neighborhood! Archie eventually was given a better home with a family and less alone time.
I was always around dogs as a child due to my old man owning a fair few but personally my first ever dog was an akita, never had a problem, never left my side and did absolutely everything I wanted him to do. They are powerful yes. They are proud dogs yes however if it makes their owner happy they will do absolutely anything! My late boy was perfection in fur form
My first dog is an Akita still alive and well. I love him so much, he wasn’t too much of a burden for us considering he sheds a lot but one reason why I love him most is because he is a very intelligent and independent boy.
My first dogs were a shi-tzu poodle and a shi-tzu cocker spaniel mix now I own two German Shepherd/American Akita mixes and they have a great temperament and are very well trained I’m 16 and have have taken the time to train them and keep their guarding instinct under control since I live in a gated community with neighbors they must learn to respect
I've had two Akitas. They were gentle, loving, well behaved another plus they hardly bark (they woo woo an Akita owner will know what I mean) but when they do it's for a good reason. With both of my Akita I had other small and large dogs no problems plus both of mine loved "their" cats.
Take it from me, a 3 time dog owner who currently has a 1 yr old border collie: DO NOT get this breed unless you are prepared to keep it entertained ALL DAY!! They need constant attention and are not good with/for other dogs/elderly people/small kids. For example took mime hiking for 4 hours the other day and when we got home he still wanted to play ball (and did) until dinner time!!
@@fixyourmind exactly, people adopt border collies because they're the cute dogs from Milkbone commercials. Or, conversely, because they're labeled as a high energy breed and they think high energy means wanting to play just slightly longer than their lapdog that sleeps all day and only plays for 20 minutes😂 Which is fine we love our lapdogs, but you can't expect a bigger lapdog from this breed. It thrives on activity and pleasing its owner, whether that seems to be fethcing a ball 1000 times or actually herding some sheep. And people just don't understand what they're getting when they adopt one.
American Akitas don't shed too much, that is just not true. They shed twice a year very much, but that's it. Also they are very intelligent dogs and learn really fast. If you are consistent in training them (mentally and physically) there are nearly no problems. Also I hate when people say, that there are breeds not suiting for beginners. If you are willing to learn what a dog needs, what they are thinking and what the individual breed stands for, you are willing to visit a dog school etc., it nearly won't matter what kind of dog you pick as your first one. I own an American Akita as my first dog and I am handleing him pretty good I would say.
I agree with you to an extent. While true dog people will find a dog that fits their lifestyle and needs best, and do proper research into he dogs their getting, the average dog owner would not. So an Akita may be a great dog your you as a dog owner, but the average pet owner wouldn't have done nearly any research. their research would have gone "oo pretty dog" and that would be the extent of it.
@@littlebee1087 Yeah unfortunetly I have to agree with that as well. That makes me so mad, those poor dogs will be in a shelter because people are overwhelmed
Unfortunately most people aren’t aware of the Kangal, especially in the US. Love the breed though! (For sure imo is the #1 dog a new or first time owner should not have though) also surprised that the cane corso wasn’t placed way higher
I think these types of "lists" are geared towards breeds that are known by the majority of people around the world. The Kangal, although a phenomenal breed, isn't recognized worldwide as easily as most of the breeds on this list. In reality there are a lot of other breeds that could have been on here instead of the Skye Terrier, lol. The Kangal, Akbash, Caucasian Shepherd and the list goes on and on and on...............
I walked with Kangal fully grown yesterday amazing and beautiful dog calm in every situation even when other dogs barked at him he just look at them and keep going, walking next to me and following all the time and is pretty active we spent whole day together... I never had a dog before but, this dog is simply amazing he walked out from his house owners came this morning to me they found him thanks God I took care of him for one day and dog is simply great owners told me he's year and a half old
Consider yourself lucky. Definitely the exception and not the rule. While breed plays a role in any dog, most are are still largely just a dog at heart. Malinois tend to very much act as their breed was intended and almost always need more physical and mental challenges than most pet owners can actually provide.
The first thing is that I really think it is a shame on us to keep a dog or any animal inside doors while their natural state is have large space to play and do their own things!! And it is definitely a shame on you to have a dog gor a long time in an apartment because maybe they are calm but that does NOT mean they are happy!! And please don't tell me that you are feeding that dog raw food too! What a double shame in that case
this is all general info bro. its all circumstantial. if its an animal, a possession a thing, than i recommend following these guide lines.( and really you should think about a goldfish instead) if however you are like me and see a living being with a personality, a friend or family member and you have the time and desire to nurture that relationship its all good! educate and get whatever you think you can handle. the 1st thing i tell anyone looking to add a canine family member is to look at them self. if you are lazy get a lazy dog. dont matter if you have 100 acres if you sit inside watching TV all day. doesnt matter if you live in an apartment if you are active and can include your new family member. i got more but ......
I have one as my first and exactly what you said @ultimate gamer very easy to train..but does your belgian like to jump a lot?cuz mines does every second Edit:i had experience with handling big and aggressive dogs
@@BmxDieseldude he is lucky, that he is not an idiot... maybe, I don't him... or her. You can be a "First time owner" just don't be stupid and research. My first dog was American akita and he never had a random out burst like they showed in this video, he never tried to attack someone and he never attempted to bite me. Again I just think it's people that are fucking retarded and do things half-assed
My first dog was an husky, but that was not a problem. Some youtube videos and i've had the best months and been able to train him much better than his previous owners even without any previous knowledge
I am a dog behaviorist and trainer, I also work in pet care and am very experienced in things having to do with dogs. Beagles are 100% a great dog for a first time dog owner
I got a cane corso guard dog and I have no problems with him and I got him as a puppy from a shelter then my dad trained him himself and I helped to he’s such a good boy he name is madia *And he’s our first and not our last*
@@dannypazani the breed is concidered the more athletic mastiff. My boy is 9 months and is pretty chill, but when he wants to go he wants to GO. he outruns my husky gsd mix. they like to have a job, so if you can't give them a job to due I'd look into a more mellow corso or not a corso at all. theres a reason why its on this list. they can be very hard dogs to deal with and handle if you dont know what you're doing
Honstley it dosent matter that you have one of these dogs as a first owner, as long as you have the heart any dog is possible for you, I have a beagle right now and that is my first time as a dog owner, it was difficult at first but now? Now it's way easier so all I'm telling is don't listen to people who say "no this dog is not good for you since your going to be a dog owner for the first time" just follow the dog you love and you think it's suitable for you and in the end of the day you will not think this is hard :)
i know that huskies have a reputation for not being great first time dogs, however my dog is the greatest she literally is the best thing we’ve ever gotten!
Hi!I want an Akita but I'm kid.I learn everything I can about Akita plus my father have experience he has 4 dogs in his life.Can we own an Akita?Please answer.
Of Course! Just because the video says, does NOT mean it’s 100 percent accurate! Just keep learning about them, and if they are supposedly hard to train, learn about dog training too!
If ur a kid trying to walk a Akita I don't recommend my Akita goes for anything she she's like other animals and same sex dogs great dogs none the less you just have to be careful and know what your doing
Hello, akita owner here! Experience doesn't matter if you're 100% willing to research and put time into the dog. As soon as the akita gets all his/her vaccines get it socialised asap! Puppy socialising courses are a must to reduce chances of the akita becoming aggressive later on. However, sometimes even with extensive training they can still be dog/stranger aggressive, so take note of that. If you acknowledge and willing to deal with that, then go ahead in getting an akita. Positive reinforcement works best with them and they can co-exist with other dogs/animals if you use the method correctly. Btw If you're a kid I wouldn't get a shelter akita at all, get a pup so it'll bond with your family.
I'm definitely not a first time dog owner, I have had dogs all my 49 years. Recently circumstance put a Blue Heeler/Cattahoula pup in my care. Wowza! I definitely expected to see Heelers in this list.
I had a heeler as my first dog! After seeing everyone talk about how difficult they are, I am so shocked. Mine has always been very calm and easy--she just wants to be right next to me at all times!
My first dog was a cane Corso and it saved my sister from a robbery and was just a partner in my life and it was so smart and loyal ( I would advise this breed
@@jfkst1 not in the UK border patrol and bomb squad use springers, cops use German shepherds, and farmers use Border Collies or there Australian sub group.
My first dog was a labrador; he nearly destroyed my house!!! Too energetic got bored very easily; he was an attention seeker. I loved him. The best dog ever.
They're not kidding about the Siberian Husky. I have a 18 month old female and she is a handful. An extremely strong and aggressive furball with teeth...vocal and stubborn as well...lol
Seriously, i do not recommend dalmatians for first time owner, i myself being an owner know how painful it is to keep a dalmatian, they are delicate(prone to diseases),they shed , full of energy can wake you up at midnight to play with them ,with randomly run around the whole house searching for slippers, they are too notorious and sometimes they can irritate you to a extent you cant even imagine, Still i love my pooch he's the apple of my eye tho, he's name is STORM..🌪
definitely yes..However just like border collies they have lots of energy thats why most of them along with border collies live in farms so they can run all day and herd
0:54 those are Alaskan Malamutes you keep confusing with the Huskies... 😑🙄. Btw, a Shar Pei and Chow Chow can both have allergies and eye problems. Also skin infections due to the wrinkles.
I've had six Shar-peis over the years. Absolutely the best dogs I've ever had. Incredibly intelligent, we're talking "problem solving intelligent." Great wrinkled security systems too. Lol
Decent list, partially. I am a trainer in southeast Texas. I work with shelters and I see every one of these breeds. Mainly chow, husky, Akita, corso, and sharpay. But the most is German Shepard's and malinois. Omg...its not because the breeds are bad, but the owners are. Many people turn their cute puppy back in at 9 months to 18 months for destruction, leash pulling, reactive on leash, or misinterpreted aggression. Good breeders won't even sell some of these breeds to first time owners. Some have bred for temperament and will pick a pup with a better demeanor, but the owner has to be willing to put in the time and training. Not 5 minutes a day, but hours. I now have 4 corsi. Love my pack and they are my example of pups that get thrown away from lack of training. Shelters are not just full of strays, but pure bred dogs that people didnt realize how much work, training, and leadership they need.
As an owner of a Boerboel I'm not to surprised to not see most mastiff breeds on this list. They're really not hard to train. Just got to work with the pig headedness
Are gsd/german shepherd good for first time owner like a beginner because i want one and i dont have experience on dogs but i have a garden and a house
So I have an Akita Inu/Norwegian Elkhound mix and sge is the best thing to ever happen. I was so ready for the akita personality but I was not prepared for her Elkhound side.
I had dobermans, a Belgian shepherd, a shar pei, yorkie and a dachshund....I now have a American akita, got her at 6 months....good luck! Stubborn, destructive, very strong, independent....I just recently bought her 3rd collar in 2 months, she's 2 yrs old now... she's our first akita and definitely not getting another....I loved my shar pei and my Dobermans
They're not as smart or trainable as GSDs or border collies, but people make it seem like akitas are stubborn and stupid. They're not if you do it right.. just use positive reinforcement and limit training sessions to small periods people. They're smart and quick learners, it's just they get bored quickly.
Good thing about akitas they pick things up without even training them that specific thing so IMHO I'd say they are very smart it's a trait most breeds don't have
@@coolcat817 I understand your own experience iv had my akita since he was 8 weeks his now nearly 11month and he was not as bad as people to train, he doesn't wear a collar as I hate collars on dogs he has a harness when he goes out. He was abit destructive when left in the house alone when I'm out but quickly corrected that
About a month and a half ago I got my first puppy, a Belgian Malinois! I got the puppy, THEN did research lmao. I freaked myself OUT. HOWEVER, what I really want people to remember is not. all. dogs. are. the. same. I got my little guy when he was 8 wks, now he is about 15 weeks. Smart as hell!! And he has his moments of energy but so far he is just the sweetest. So please just remember when you watch these videos that not all dogs are the same. These videos definitely are true and useful, but don’t let the internet scare you out of getting a dog. It’s all about how you train them and treat them.
Sara my husband has had one before and he would talk about her all the time. So I didn’t think anything of it. Then I decided to just look them up and found out more info. Best dogs ever
I've been owned by an Akita. A great dog and not a problem at all. And now have the pleasure of being owned by a Shar- Pei. Also a great dog. Never any problems with either. And both were very easy to potty train.
Wow, first video I agreed with 100%. They are all great breeds of dogs. I wish I could own a few of them but until I move out of California and get my small fenced in Ranch, I just can’t give them the exercise they need living in the city.
My first ever dog was a border collie, they are a lot and you have to be active with a large yard but otherwise, your ok. I now own a Australian Shepherd and they are a better breed than a border collie, my reasoning: 1) they look slightly similar (ears, body type, and facial structure) 2) they are smaller 3) they have a similar temperament ( are ok with people so they don't bark much, cunning, and very smart ) If ur looking for a border collie but can't keep up with one, an Australian Shepherd is a great alternative breed
I have a border collie and I disagree. She gets possession aggression pretty bad, has had me hostage in one spot for awhile at times, at times I thought she was going to seriously hurt someone and I have kids so that was scary. . I looked into rehoming her and in that process found out that the aggression very common in this breed when they experience big changes or bored (moved into apartment after my divorce, no longer had fenced in yard that I used to have so both those were true). I fortunately was able to get it under control and it’s a rare occurrence now but I have to stick to a strict routine, make sure we are clear of triggers (can’t let her eat out of food bowl without me holding it, can’t leave a blanket laying around off a bed, can’t approach her when she’s laying in certain places, etc etc etc) and make sure she gets exercise (walks and playing ball) and more car rides (her happy place). I think what I go thru would be extremely overwhelming for some people.
Sounds a bit like my young english Bull terrier. Have to have a lot of rules and structure or ge becomes unruly. hes also bad with kids To me its not a fun experience. I had many other dogs before that were more of a normal less high strung nature... they were much more fun and pleasant to own.
Now I have to go and watch "Turner and Hooch." Thank you. ;) A lady I used to drive to the airport from her remote home had an Akita that thought I was his new chew toy and she didn't think there was a darn thing wrong with it. Scarred me for life.
My last 4 dogs have been American Akitas only one of them was not dog aggressive when I say that he was the one that didn't start the fight. I had a female who was an awesome Watch dog (not guard dog) at night. If you jumped the fence she would not attack you but give you a big scare and a left me with her deep bark.
My husband and I recently got a husky as a companion for our other dog. He’s a handful and requires a lot more attention and exercise than our other dog. Great dogs, love snuggles and kisses and being with family, but definitely not for someone who’s never owned a dog before.
My cousin is a first time dog owner got a husky We helped her raising him even though we don't have a dog she is dam lucky that he's really laid back and was good with others and people after he got attacked by a dog and got hurt he is wary of other dogs and now that he is 6 has become protective over his family and our family it gets better though there training with him
My mom had Akitas. Beautiful dogs. They never left her side. If she fell they layed next to her. But they did not like teasing or people they didnt know approaching them.
my mom had 3 chows one was mixed with a GSD she was so sweet and friendly she had the body of a GSD and a blue tunge and our 2 others were pure bred chows if anyone gets a chow i think i would social it around little kids cuz one of my mom's chows were aggresive around kids even me and my little sister kids who she grew up with
Huskies can be good family dogs, but they need lots of exercise and training, since they are stubborn. I would also be careful if you have young children as a husky may knock them over while playing. Huskies also have a strong prey drive so if you have a cat or another small animal I would not recommend a husky. As long as you are willing to put in the time and effort to train and exercise a husky they can be great family pets. A large fenced in yard is also highly recommended as Huskies are known escape artists from yards. Hope this helps!
Krishna Manohar you just have to train them right 🤷🏻♀️If they’re trained right, they’re the most loving and loyal dogs

I agree with this list except I'd like to add another dog, the German Shorthaired Pointer. I knew a couple who got one of these dogs primarily because they liked the looks of the dog. Big Mistake! They didn't have the yard size and didn't exercise the dog as they should have. The dog couldn't be left alone for more than an hour or so without tearing up the house. They finally gave the dog away to a family in a rural area where they could accommodate the dog's energy. They should have done their homework.
I have two cane corso mastiffs! My biggest one is 160 pounds and if very tall! The breeders were amazed at her size! And she isn’t fat. She has a lot of muscle and is very tall!

Take it from me, a 3 time dog owner who currently has a 1 yr old border collie:
DO NOT get this breed unless you are prepared to keep it entertained ALL DAY!! They need constant attention and are not good with/for other dogs/elderly people/small kids. For example took mime hiking for 4 hours the other day and when we got home he still wanted to play ball (and did) until dinner time!!

@@fixyourmind exactly, people adopt border collies because they're the cute dogs from Milkbone commercials.

@@dinobnotz9761 give him/her lots of attention!! Have so so many toys and games (and lots of walks haha) ready!!
My first dog was a Pit Bull, 30 Years ago, still own pit Bulls, love them
American Akitas don't shed too much, that is just not true. They shed twice a year very much, but that's it. Also they are very intelligent dogs and learn really fast. If you are consistent in training them (mentally and physically) there are nearly no problems. Also I hate when people say, that there are breeds not suiting for beginners. If you are willing to learn what a dog needs, what they are thinking and what the individual breed stands for, you are willing to visit a dog school etc., it nearly won't matter what kind of dog you pick as your first one. I own an American Akita as my first dog and I am handleing him pretty good I would say.
My sister has one and it's well trained and obedient to her.
Very protective too
I agree with you to an extent. While true dog people will find a dog that fits their lifestyle and needs best, and do proper research into he dogs their getting, the average dog owner would not. So an Akita may be a great dog your you as a dog owner, but the average pet owner wouldn't have done nearly any research. their research would have gone "oo pretty dog" and that would be the extent of it.
I agree however I would recommend always doing your research first to see if they’re the right dog for you :3
@@littlebee1087 Yeah unfortunetly I have to agree with that as well. That makes me so mad, those poor dogs will be in a shelter because people are overwhelmed
@@Rayzz.69 absolutely! :)
Who also thought that the kangal (Turkish shepherd) will be in number one or in the first three ?
And left out the Tibetan Mastiff and the other Dutch Shepherds....tsk....
Unfortunately most people aren’t aware of the Kangal, especially in the US. Love the breed though! (For sure imo is the #1 dog a new or first time owner should not have though) also surprised that the cane corso wasn’t placed way higher
I think these types of "lists" are geared towards breeds that are known by the majority of people around the world. The Kangal, although a phenomenal breed, isn't recognized worldwide as easily as most of the breeds on this list. In reality there are a lot of other breeds that could have been on here instead of the Skye Terrier, lol. The Kangal, Akbash, Caucasian Shepherd and the list goes on and on and on...............
I expect it to be Cane Corso
I walked with Kangal fully grown yesterday amazing and beautiful dog calm in every situation even when other dogs barked at him he just look at them and keep going, walking next to me and following all the time and is pretty active we spent whole day together... I never had a dog before but, this dog is simply amazing he walked out from his house owners came this morning to me they found him thanks God I took care of him for one day and dog is simply great owners told me he's year and a half old
I have a Belgian Malionis as my first dog and he was great and easy to train and I live in a apartment
Consider yourself lucky. Definitely the exception and not the rule. While breed plays a role in any dog, most are are still largely just a dog at heart. Malinois tend to very much act as their breed was intended and almost always need more physical and mental challenges than most pet owners can actually provide.
The first thing is that I really think it is a shame on us to keep a dog or any animal inside doors while their natural state is have large space to play and do their own things!! And it is definitely a shame on you to have a dog gor a long time in an apartment because maybe they are calm but that does NOT mean they are happy!! And please don't tell me that you are feeding that dog raw food too! What a double shame in that case
this is all general info bro. its all circumstantial. if its an animal, a possession a thing, than i recommend following these guide lines.( and really you should think about a goldfish instead) if however you are like me and see a living being with a personality, a friend or family member and you have the time and desire to nurture that relationship its all good! educate and get whatever you think you can handle.
the 1st thing i tell anyone looking to add a canine family member is to look at them self. if you are lazy get a lazy dog. dont matter if you have 100 acres if you sit inside watching TV all day. doesnt matter if you live in an apartment if you are active and can include your new family member.
i got more but ......
I have one as my first and exactly what you said @ultimate gamer very easy to train..but does your belgian like to jump a lot?cuz mines does every second Edit:i had experience with handling big and aggressive dogs
@@BmxDieseldude he is lucky, that he is not an idiot... maybe, I don't him... or her. You can be a "First time owner" just don't be stupid and research. My first dog was American akita and he never had a random out burst like they showed in this video, he never tried to attack someone and he never attempted to bite me. Again I just think it's people that are fucking retarded and do things half-assed
Please give me a heart and can you please do dog data : American Pitbull terrier
Ok. Next one Dog Data on American Pitbull Terrier! Stay tuned 😉
Animaltube.TV Thanks a lot!!!😃😃
My first dog was an husky, but that was not a problem. Some youtube videos and i've had the best months and been able to train him much better than his previous owners even without any previous knowledge
That's not a akita inu that's a American akita
True i have an akita inu my baby is very careful with children and other dogs also very sweet and loving
@@tuanaagaj2509 But so are american akitas. Akitas dont usually mess with human but dogs are another thing.
Normal Akita inu is called Japanese Akita then :/
I absolute agree with you, not bad dog, just bad trainer, you train them with your love, the will love you back
Great information on what to look out for before choosing a 1st time dog breed.
beagles are in the list of top friendliest dogs
That’s why research labs they test on them because they never bite.
I am a dog behaviorist and trainer, I also work in pet care and am very experienced in things having to do with dogs. Beagles are 100% a great dog for a first time dog owner
I've done dog training before and this list is quite dumb, some dogs I wouldn't recommend for newbies are any mastiffs, bully terriers and malamutes.
Kim Juan Jun same love the name btw 😂
I got a cane corso guard dog and I have no problems with him and I got him as a puppy from a shelter then my dad trained him himself and I helped to he’s such a good boy he name is madia *And he’s our first and not our last*
My cousin has a cane corso x rottweiler and he's very gentle.
do they chill easily or really need to run and play?
daniel pazani mine is very active 3- 2 walks a day and if you train them good they can be amazing around children and are really playful
@@dannypazani the breed is concidered the more athletic mastiff. My boy is 9 months and is pretty chill, but when he wants to go he wants to GO. he outruns my husky gsd mix.
they like to have a job, so if you can't give them a job to due I'd look into a more mellow corso or not a corso at all. theres a reason why its on this list. they can be very hard dogs to deal with and handle if you dont know what you're doing
Best TH-camr 😊
Honstley it dosent matter that you have one of these dogs as a first owner, as long as you have the heart any dog is possible for you, I have a beagle right now and that is my first time as a dog owner, it was difficult at first but now? Now it's way easier so all I'm telling is don't listen to people who say "no this dog is not good for you since your going to be a dog owner for the first time" just follow the dog you love and you think it's suitable for you and in the end of the day you will not think this is hard :)
i know that huskies have a reputation for not being great first time dogs, however my dog is the greatest she literally is the best thing we’ve ever gotten!
Hi!I want an Akita but I'm kid.I learn everything I can about Akita plus my father have experience he has 4 dogs in his life.Can we own an Akita?Please answer.
You can you just have to put in the effort ( train he/she very well )‼️
Of Course! Just because the video says, does NOT mean it’s 100 percent accurate!
Just keep learning about them, and if they are supposedly hard to train, learn about dog training too!
Lia Loves Bernedoodles Exactly my point just be the best for your dog and your dog will reward you, vica versa😎
If ur a kid trying to walk a Akita I don't recommend my Akita goes for anything she she's like other animals and same sex dogs great dogs none the less you just have to be careful and know what your doing
Hello, akita owner here! Experience doesn't matter if you're 100% willing to research and put time into the dog. As soon as the akita gets all his/her vaccines get it socialised asap! Puppy socialising courses are a must to reduce chances of the akita becoming aggressive later on. However, sometimes even with extensive training they can still be dog/stranger aggressive, so take note of that. If you acknowledge and willing to deal with that, then go ahead in getting an akita. Positive reinforcement works best with them and they can co-exist with other dogs/animals if you use the method correctly.
Btw If you're a kid I wouldn't get a shelter akita at all, get a pup so it'll bond with your family.
My first dog was actually a Siberian Husky. She made me love animals.
My x had chow chow, and she was her first dog with another breed, 2 dogs for the first time owner and they were super happy
I'm definitely not a first time dog owner, I have had dogs all my 49 years. Recently circumstance put a Blue Heeler/Cattahoula pup in my care. Wowza! I definitely expected to see Heelers in this list.
I had a heeler as my first dog! After seeing everyone talk about how difficult they are, I am so shocked. Mine has always been very calm and easy--she just wants to be right next to me at all times!
My first dog was a cane Corso and it saved my sister from a robbery and was just a partner in my life and it was so smart and loyal ( I would advise this breed
Already a subscriber!
we got our belgian malinois in october as a first time and he is happy here because i live in a big home
I did and I'm already subscribed.
Also most police dogs are German Shepard's with Springer Spaniels as sniffer dogs.
Malinois are the majority of military working dogs and police working dogs IME as both a soldier and LEO.
@@jfkst1 not in the UK border patrol and bomb squad use springers, cops use German shepherds, and farmers use Border Collies or there Australian sub group.
@@dogwalker666 You're right, Malinois are getting popular here now though.
What about dogo argentino?
My first dog was a labrador; he nearly destroyed my house!!! Too energetic got bored very easily; he was an attention seeker. I loved him. The best dog ever.
Pronounce the dog breeds correctly.
My OCD was going crazy
You just named like 4 dogs I want 😭😭
They're not kidding about the Siberian Husky. I have a 18 month old female and she is a handful. An extremely strong and aggressive furball with teeth...vocal and stubborn as well...lol
Seriously, i do not recommend dalmatians for first time owner, i myself being an owner know how painful it is to keep a dalmatian, they are delicate(prone to diseases),they shed , full of energy can wake you up at midnight to play with them ,with randomly run around the whole house searching for slippers, they are too notorious and sometimes they can irritate you to a extent you cant even imagine,
Still i love my pooch he's the apple of my eye tho, he's name is STORM..🌪
How about rough collies? Are they good for first time owner?
definitely yes..However just like border collies they have lots of energy thats why most of them along with border collies live in farms so they can run all day and herd
but its ok cause if you taking them on long daily walks there is shouldnt be problem
Cane Corso can be good for novice owners just you need to train them well
They're one of the most level mastiff breeds, there's a few other mastiffs I wouldn't get over one of them.
0:54 those are Alaskan Malamutes you keep confusing with the Huskies... 😑🙄. Btw, a Shar Pei and Chow Chow can both have allergies and eye problems. Also skin infections due to the wrinkles.
I've had six Shar-peis over the years. Absolutely the best dogs I've ever had. Incredibly intelligent, we're talking "problem solving intelligent." Great wrinkled security systems too. Lol
Our first dogs where 2 border colis and we have a good time even now
Is it just me but Chinese shar pei and chow chows are the cutest breeds.
Decent list, partially. I am a trainer in southeast Texas. I work with shelters and I see every one of these breeds. Mainly chow, husky, Akita, corso, and sharpay. But the most is German Shepard's and malinois. Omg...its not because the breeds are bad, but the owners are. Many people turn their cute puppy back in at 9 months to 18 months for destruction, leash pulling, reactive on leash, or misinterpreted aggression.
Good breeders won't even sell some of these breeds to first time owners. Some have bred for temperament and will pick a pup with a better demeanor, but the owner has to be willing to put in the time and training. Not 5 minutes a day, but hours. I now have 4 corsi. Love my pack and they are my example of pups that get thrown away from lack of training. Shelters are not just full of strays, but pure bred dogs that people didnt realize how much work, training, and leadership they need.
As an owner of a Boerboel I'm not to surprised to not see most mastiff breeds on this list. They're really not hard to train. Just got to work with the pig headedness
My first dog is an amstaff, adopted when he was nearly 5 years old. He's good and not problematic.
My first dog was a border collie and she was very intelligent and energetic.I really like energetic dogs.
My first dog was border collie. I can handle anything lol
anyone who had a border collie/husky/malamute/akita as a first time owner and trained them well is instantly dog jesus
@@pardofelis facts! facts! FACTS!
I had a 6 year old rescue female beagle she was quiet, protective and sweet. Sadly died at age 11

This was the previous vdo

So can u put a Tibetan mastiff with u as first dog...?
Give me a heart . I am always watching your videos ,canyou make a video of dog data of beagle
and now its been years since i saw bisket if I only saw him my would cry tears out
Are gsd/german shepherd good for first time owner like a beginner because i want one and i dont have experience on dogs
but i have a garden and a house
My first dog was a siberian husky and he is 7 years old now. Sweet and loving bit also protective. It all depends on the owner how their dogs behave.
So I have an Akita Inu/Norwegian Elkhound mix and sge is the best thing to ever happen. I was so ready for the akita personality but I was not prepared for her Elkhound side.
Me and my partner have. 10 month old akita they not as hard to train as people say, he was also our first dog
I had dobermans, a Belgian shepherd, a shar pei, yorkie and a dachshund....I now have a American akita, got her at 6 months....good luck! Stubborn, destructive, very strong, independent....I just recently bought her 3rd collar in 2 months, she's 2 yrs old now... she's our first akita and definitely not getting another....I loved my shar pei and my Dobermans
Pitbulls are tougher to have than akitas
They're not as smart or trainable as GSDs or border collies, but people make it seem like akitas are stubborn and stupid. They're not if you do it right.. just use positive reinforcement and limit training sessions to small periods people. They're smart and quick learners, it's just they get bored quickly.
Good thing about akitas they pick things up without even training them that specific thing so IMHO I'd say they are very smart it's a trait most breeds don't have
@@coolcat817 I understand your own experience iv had my akita since he was 8 weeks his now nearly 11month and he was not as bad as people to train, he doesn't wear a collar as I hate collars on dogs he has a harness when he goes out. He was abit destructive when left in the house alone when I'm out but quickly corrected that
Great video
About a month and a half ago I got my first puppy, a Belgian Malinois! I got the puppy, THEN did research lmao. I freaked myself OUT. HOWEVER, what I really want people to remember is not. all. dogs. are. the. same. I got my little guy when he was 8 wks, now he is about 15 weeks. Smart as hell!! And he has his moments of energy but so far he is just the sweetest. So please just remember when you watch these videos that not all dogs are the same. These videos definitely are true and useful, but don’t let the internet scare you out of getting a dog. It’s all about how you train them and treat them.
Sara my husband has had one before and he would talk about her all the time. So I didn’t think anything of it. Then I decided to just look them up and found out more info. Best dogs ever
I've been owned by an Akita. A great dog and not a problem at all. And now have the pleasure of being owned by a Shar- Pei. Also a great dog. Never any problems with either. And both were very easy to potty train.
I really want either a belgian malinois / german sheperd , greyhound , golden /lab or a doberman
I strongly recommend a German Shepherd!😁
Cant agrue with stubborn shepherd but i sorta do love doberman! But its up it u!
Doge same here! My first pup was a gsd. A lot of learning
Malinois has basically no health issues while Dobermans probably the most health issues.
Frostyy _ I’ve been dreaming of owning an Akita for like 20 years.
Wow, first video I agreed with 100%. They are all great breeds of dogs. I wish I could own a few of them but until I move out of California and get my small fenced in Ranch, I just can’t give them the exercise they need living in the city.
Beagle and border collie are completely okay for first time owners.
Beagles sure. But Collies, u sure?
Beagle is fine but not border collie
My first ever dog was a border collie, they are a lot and you have to be active with a large yard but otherwise, your ok. I now own a Australian Shepherd and they are a better breed than a border collie, my reasoning:
1) they look slightly similar (ears, body type, and facial structure)
2) they are smaller
3) they have a similar temperament ( are ok with people so they don't bark much, cunning, and very smart )
If ur looking for a border collie but can't keep up with one, an Australian Shepherd is a great alternative breed
I have a border collie and I disagree. She gets possession aggression pretty bad, has had me hostage in one spot for awhile at times, at times I thought she was going to seriously hurt someone and I have kids so that was scary. . I looked into rehoming her and in that process found out that the aggression very common in this breed when they experience big changes or bored (moved into apartment after my divorce, no longer had fenced in yard that I used to have so both those were true). I fortunately was able to get it under control and it’s a rare occurrence now but I have to stick to a strict routine, make sure we are clear of triggers (can’t let her eat out of food bowl without me holding it, can’t leave a blanket laying around off a bed, can’t approach her when she’s laying in certain places, etc etc etc) and make sure she gets exercise (walks and playing ball) and more car rides (her happy place). I think what I go thru would be extremely overwhelming for some people.
Sounds a bit like my young english Bull terrier.
Have to have a lot of rules and structure or ge becomes unruly. hes also bad with kids
To me its not a fun experience. I had many other dogs before that were more of a normal less high strung nature... they were much more fun and pleasant to own.
Now I have to go and watch "Turner and Hooch." Thank you. ;)
A lady I used to drive to the airport from her remote home had an Akita that thought I was his new chew toy and she didn't think there was a darn thing wrong with it. Scarred me for life.
If your a first time owner is a labradoodle a good dog breed to get?
I have a 5 months old Malinois :') He is already a handfull but he's awesome.
Awww the Samoyed at the end!♥️😆
My last 4 dogs have been American Akitas only one of them was not dog aggressive when I say that he was the one that didn't start the fight. I had a female who was an awesome Watch dog (not guard dog) at night. If you jumped the fence she would not attack you but give you a big scare and a left me with her deep bark.
I had a American Akita as my first dog. There were some difficult moments, but i would not get any other dogbreed than my friend Aki
My husband and I recently got a husky as a companion for our other dog. He’s a handful and requires a lot more attention and exercise than our other dog. Great dogs, love snuggles and kisses and being with family, but definitely not for someone who’s never owned a dog before.
😂 they pulled out the uno reverse card on u
My cousin is a first time dog owner got a husky We helped her raising him even though we don't have a dog she is dam lucky that he's really laid back and was good with others and people after he got attacked by a dog and got hurt he is wary of other dogs and now that he is 6 has become protective over his family and our family it gets better though there training with him
My mom had Akitas. Beautiful dogs. They never left her side. If she fell they layed next to her. But they did not like teasing or people they didnt know approaching them.
I lost my best boy a year ago. We had a great 7 years together! But we lost him due to cancer. But I wouldn't change it for the world.
0:13 of course its all about training as my first dog was Dalmation he is naughty but we all love him
my mom had 3 chows one was mixed with a GSD she was so sweet and friendly she had the body of a GSD and a blue tunge and our 2 others were pure bred chows if anyone gets a chow i think i would social it around little kids cuz one of my mom's chows were aggresive around kids even me and my little sister kids who she grew up with
I got my Pyrenees pup as a first time, I heard it’s stubborn dog breed, I hope I raise it best
I'd like to adopt a husky and I'm first time buying a dog. Is it dangerous or something for family. And hope giving me some advice 😁
Huskies can be good family dogs, but they need lots of exercise and training, since they are stubborn. I would also be careful if you have young children as a husky may knock them over while playing. Huskies also have a strong prey drive so if you have a cat or another small animal I would not recommend a husky. As long as you are willing to put in the time and effort to train and exercise a husky they can be great family pets. A large fenced in yard is also highly recommended as Huskies are known escape artists from yards.
Hope this helps!
I have a dalmation and a saint Bernard and they are not dangerous they are very cute and familiar
Beagles are not bad dogs for first time owners. They are really sweet and you can get one as a first time owner
My 1st time dog Rottweiler
How was the exprience ?
Good...👍
I am going to be a first time dog owner, is Rottweiler a good choice,
Aren't they aggressive?
Aggressive nehi dangerous hota hai. Aggressive to Chihuahua bhi hota hai...
Krishna Manohar you just have to train them right 🤷🏻♀️If they’re trained right, they’re the most loving and loyal dogs
I agree with this list except I'd like to add another dog, the German Shorthaired Pointer. I knew a couple who got one of these dogs primarily because they liked the looks of the dog. Big Mistake! They didn't have the yard size and didn't exercise the dog as they should have. The dog couldn't be left alone for more than an hour or so without tearing up the house. They finally gave the dog away to a family in a rural area where they could accommodate the dog's energy. They should have done their homework.
My first dog is a Samoyed, and I want a GSD for my second dog
I have two cane corso mastiffs! My biggest one is 160 pounds and if very tall! The breeders were amazed at her size! And she isn’t fat. She has a lot of muscle and is very tall!
The beagle and border collie are the best choice for a novice owner
I got a belgian malinois recently and it is probably one of the best dogs besides being overly energetic and they like to make messes
Was it your first dog?
