I’m a dog walker and there’s five breeds I’d never own – a popular pooch will break your bank with vet bills
A DOG walker has revealed the five breeds that she would never own.
Lillie-May shared her thoughts via a video posted to her TikTok channel.
The first dogs on her list are French Bulldogs or any brachycephalic breeds.
Brachycephalic dogs are animals that have been bread to have short snouts and flat faces, such as Bulldogs and Pugs.
They often have breathing problems and troubles with their teeth and eyesight.
The breeding of these dogs are banned in some countries, such as the Netherlands, and some animal rights groups are calling for them to be banned in the UK.
The next breed on Lille-May’s list is the Jack Russell.
She said: “I’ve never met one that didn’t want to eat my ankles”.
She is also not a fan of Chihuahuas, as she said they are “too yappy”.
Next on Lille-May’s list is the Great Dane, as she said the animal is too large to be kept in many houses.
And finally, she said she would never own a Cavalier King Charles.
“My bank would be broken with all of the trips to the vets”, she said.
Cavaliers are prone to a number of health conditions, such as cataracts, ear infections and mitral valve heart disease.
Lillie-May’s video, which was posted to the username, @.arthurandco has likely struck a chord with many people, as it has racked up over 503,000 views on the video sharing platform.
TikTok users raced to the video’s comments section to share their thoughts.
