Not Friendly: Dog Breeds That Might Cause Great Damage To Your House
Dogs are man’s best friend – so the saying goes. These animals have proven their loyalty to their owners or the family that owns them. Nonetheless, ‘friendly’ is a word that cannot be generally used for all dog breeds, especially when it comes to how some of them treat their owners’ home. Sadly, there are certain breeds of dog that are considered destructive to homes. Reasons as to why some dog breeds may prove challenging to take care of and require you to hire cleaning service every now and then vary. The good news, though, is that paying attention to these reasons will still give you hope in acquiring one of the dog breeds in this list as your companions.
Mastiff – Estimated Lifetime Cost in Damage: $585
If there is one word to best describe a Mastiff dog, it would be ‘ancient’. Because this breed’s canine ancestors existed 5,000 years ago, and they owe their lineage to the war-specialist dog breed, Molossus. It’s truly anyone’s pride to own a dog that is the picture of strength and courage, which can protect its owner to the best of their abilities when threatened. Yet owning a Mastiff in your home can be tricky, because aside from drooling most of the time and creating a mess on your hardwood flooring or carpet, they can ruin your most prized possessions when bored. It’s best to give your pet Mastiff regular play time and exercise outdoors, especially because they love to dig.
