Dogs That Will Destroy Your Home
18) Dalmatian
These beautifully spotted dogs need constant attention, socialization, and affection from their owners. If you have small children around you won’t be able to dedicate the amount of time this breed needs. If they feel neglected they develop behavioral problems.
The Dalmatian is a sensitive dog, which can easily become aggressive thanks to their high-energy, intelligence, and independent tendencies. They are also pretty adorable, and they don’t look aggressive, which makes people think they can get in a Dalmatian’s face or get too playful with them. This isn’t the case, and the Dalmatian breed is stubborn, and will not hesitate to bite if they feel threatened.
