An expert dog trainer has revealed the top dog breeds he recommends families should avoid owning. Garett Wing, the man behind the TikTok page, American Standard K9, shared the advice to his 3.6m TikTok followers.
The American law enforcement veteran with 18 years' experience at the City of Miami Police Department turned professional dog trainer mentioned three types of dogs that families with young children should shy away from.
Garett hailed the Tibetan Mastiff as a "monster of a dog", putting it in third place. The dog can grow to have a weight of around 68kg and height of 26 inches, SurreyLive reports.
