Dog breeds that are too dangerous to have at home

Chihuahua

Seeing this breed at the top of the list probably brings a specific image to mind. Often nicknamed the “little devil,” Chihuahuas may seem adorable—especially when they’re asleep—but they might not be the best choice for homes with young children.

Naturally territorial and eager to be the center of attention, Chihuahuas can be surprisingly aggressive and stubborn, especially when they feel their status is being threatened. Basically, they’re tiny tyrants.
