Dog trainer names three dog breeds that are the most 'challenging' to train




While each dog has their own personality, there are some breeds that have a disobedient streak. Will Atherton of Canine Training said: "I've had the pleasure of working with thousands of different dogs and thousands of different owners."

Because of this, he stated: "That has allowed me to work with countless different breeds of dogs." Revealing his "three least favourite breeds" to train, Will started off with the Siberian Husky.

"I always sigh if I realise I'm going to be working with a Siberian Husky," Will confessed. Describing the Siberian Husky's temperament as "frustrating", Will admitted training a Siberian Husky is "challenging".

Will elaborated: "In my experience, Siberian Huskies are almost cat-like; they have very little desire to please their owner.

"They know what they want and all they care about is getting what they want [without following orders]."

These dogs are "ludicrously high-energy dogs" that are bred to run up to "30 miles a day, in brutal conditions, pulling extremely heavy sleds".

Will explained: "Then we bring them into our home and expect them to be happy and content with a 20-minute walk round the block."

Emphasising that this isn't going to bring the dog happiness, and with them being "drama queens", you can expect "squealing and howling".

"They're incredibly dramatic," Will restated. "Which makes it more challenging, frankly more embarrassing and difficult to work with." He made clear: "I would never choose to own one myself in the future."

The second type of breed that Will is not a fan of training is "anything a poo: Cockapoo, Cavapoo, you name it".

Will explained: "I find that the people that gravitate towards these breeds tend to make the cardinal sin of humanising dogs, [which] can create huge problems."

The third dog breed Will doesn't enjoy training is the Caucasian Shepherd, or the Central Asian Shepherd.

"Luckily, they're incredibly rare so I've only had to work with a handful of them myself."
