Some dogs are a joy to train, while others are the exact opposite.

It all depends on the breed. This is a proven fact that is hard to dispute.

If you want to get a dog not only to protect your property, but also to teach it various commands and tricks, then these five breeds will be a bad choice.

This is especially true for beginning dog breeders. Cynologist Vladimir Golubev spoke about these breeds in an interview with RIA Novosti .

Akita

An independent and willful breed that has a sense of self-worth.

At the same time, they are active and life in a private house with a large territory is more suitable for them.

Basenji

Smart and independent dogs. But at the same time they are affectionate and sensitive pets.

Representatives of this breed are extremely independent, which makes training them quite difficult.

Afghan Hound

It will be difficult for beginners to cope with this breed. Special knowledge and experience are needed.

Afghan Hounds are extremely hardy and require long walks with vigorous exercise.

Tibetan Mastiff

This is a wonderful breed of guard dogs. But before training them, you need to acquire special knowledge and additional skills.

Only an experienced dog handler can handle the Tibetan Mastiff. A newbie is doomed to failure.

Siberian Husky

The breed is very active. Siberian Huskies love to take regular and long walks.

If you don't provide the dog with this, the result will be destruction in the house, undesirable behavior and bad habits. In this case, you can forget about training.
