Naughty Dog Breeds

As seen in The Sunday Mail - Feb 08th 2009 the naughtiest dog breeds are

1. Beagles (Now who is surprised about this one!!)

2. Labrador

3. Boxer

4. Staffy

5. German Shepherd

6. Jack Russell

7. Maltese

8. Shar Pei

9. Cocker Spaniel

10. Kelpie/Cattle Dog

I don't know how much of this is due to the breed as the owners choosing the wrong breed!! All these dogs are very intelligent and perform extremely well once trained and given the right stimulation. Making sure your dog is suited to your lifestyle and has proper obedience training from a puppy will help you to not end up with a dog tha should be featured on this list!!
