OMG. My beagle is curled up on the couch JUST LIKE THIS RIGHT NOW. Though when she does it, she's a donut because she is the absolute sweetest dog in the world with absolutely no annoying habits at all. Even my mom, who hates dogs, grudgingly admits she is a really good dog.

Keeshound. That friggen coat was so hard to maintain and taking her out during muddy times always requires a bath.

Pugs are not smart.

I have a wonderful old pug...he is many things: funny, sweet, snuggly. But he is NOT smart. I'm a pug person for life.

I had a smart pug! He was a great dog, no health problems, for sure funny and snuggly.

I love our Great Pyrenees but the house training almost killed me and the shedding is INSANE. Good thing he is the sweetest dog and rarely barks.

pp have you checked out The Asher House on instagram and facebook? It is all about this guy who rescues dogs and he rescued the sweetest Great Pyrenees called Bentley.
Cannot believe anyone ever wanted to give away that dog!!

Our Great Pyrenees was The Best Dog Ever. But we have no neighbors, so her nightly barking and patrolling were not a problem.

I think that bad dogs are just good dogs in the wrong situation.

People get terriers or herding dogs and expect them to be happy in a crate.

So you would get them again or not? The title of the thread is WORST dog breed, not best.

New person here. I HATE corgis. Nasty, bitey dogs. Definitely on my list of worst dogs, along with JRTs.

+1 To Corgis. They fixate on one person and hate everyone else. THat's probably why Queen Elizabeth loves them.

+1 for the breeds which are both smart and determined to have their way! There is something to be said for dumb! or so smart they act dumb --Golden Retrievers.

Ha, this is so true. We're German and own two Rottweilers. It doesn't matter if we speak German or English, spell it in eihter language....we've devolved into spelling the ENglish word in German to get around this issue or the German words in English to confuse the dogs. It's only a matter of time before they catch on. One of them learned how to unlatch his crate...this requires using his nose and paw simultaneously to unlatch and open. He then opens the other crate door so that they can roam around the house and sleep on the "verboten" sofas while we're gone, but when they hear the garage door they run back into their crates. Of course they can neither close the crates again, nor get rid of the fur on the sofas. It's funny.

Oh sorry...off topic. Worst dog breed: beagle. (Belongs to a friend). Yaps and barks constantly, she can't seem to house train it. Would drive me nuts.

This thread is all “I hate this kind of dog because of this one I know that sucks” and then others defending the dog with a different anecdote. In the spirit of that, I adore my beagle. He’s the absolute best, friendliest, smartest dog. Low shedding, low barking, active but not crazy, loves everyone he meets, and super easy to train.

I have a corgi which we love but our neighborhood beagles are great. They are all super friendly and very cute.
