Vet Ranks Dog Breeds: Controversial Picks Spark Online Debate

UPDATE: A viral TikTok video by veterinarian Dr. Amir Anwary has ignited a heated debate among pet owners as he ranks his favorite and least favorite dog breeds, revealing surprising opinions that are capturing attention across social media.

In the video posted earlier today, Dr. Anwary, known on TikTok as @Amirthevet, dives into a ‘controversial’ topic that many pet owners are eager to discuss. He uses a fun TikTok filter to randomly select various breeds, then rates them based on his experiences in veterinary practice. The video has already amassed over 6,000 likes and is fueling conversations about dog behavior and human-perception of breeds.

Dr. Anwary’s first pick, the poodle, received a warm reception from him. “I like poodles. I really like them. I’ve never been bitten by one,” he stated, placing them at number six on his list. However, his affection for English bulldogs was more pronounced, ranking them second. “I love English bulldogs, guys… I love their temperament,” he shared, acknowledging their unfortunate breathing issues.

The vet’s commentary took a humorous turn when he encountered the chihuahua, which he ranked as his least favorite. “Satan. Why are they making it smile? The lies, the deception,” he joked, drawing laughter and agreement from many viewers.

As the video progressed, golden retrievers initially secured the top spot. “I love goldens… they’ve always been so chilled,” he declared. However, the excitement peaked when he reranked the pit bull as his favorite breed, stating, “I love pit bulls, obsessed with them… never been bitten by a pit bull.” His candid ranking reflects a shift in the narrative surrounding pit bulls, often regarded as aggressive.

The video also featured a range of other breeds, including labradors at number five and shih tzus at four, with Dr. Anwary providing light-hearted insights into each breed’s behavior. He noted that black labradors can sometimes display unpredictable behavior, adding nuance to his rankings.

Further down the list, he cited German shepherds as ninth, due to their prevalence in South Africa and potential aggression, while beagles landed at number eight for their incessant sniffing habits. The rankings have sparked reactions from viewers, who are eager to share their own experiences and opinions on the breeds mentioned.

This engaging content has not only entertained but also provided a platform for pet owners to discuss their beloved dogs. Comments flooded in, with one user remarking, “Every chihuahua I have ever met has been so sweet,” highlighting the contrasting views on the breed’s temperament.

As the conversation continues to unfold online, pet owners are encouraged to share their thoughts and experiences, making this a trending topic in the pet community. With the video gaining traction, Dr. Anwary’s rankings may very well influence perceptions of these popular dog breeds.
