5 dog breed myths

Because dogs are more than labels

5 dog breed myths

Breed labels can be helpful—but they’re often misunderstood or overhyped 🐕

Here are 5 common breed myths we’d love to set straight ⬇️

Understanding your dog as an individual (not just a stereotype) is the key to great care and training. Let’s debunk some old-school beliefs:

  1. “Pit bulls are naturally aggressive.”
  2. “Small dogs don’t need training.”
  3. “Huskies can’t live in warm weather.”
  4. “Working breeds must have a job.”
  5. “Rescues are always mixed breeds.”

    Truth? Dogs are individuals. Temperament and behavior depend on environment, training, genetics—and lots of love 💛
