Ingrid () listed off the no-no dog breeds in a viral on TikTok.

From behavioral issues to health ailments, she gave her reasons for avoiding the pups.

She also specified that it wasn't a drag against the animals themselves, but just a preference.

Ingrid said that simply not wanting to own the dogs doesn't mean a lack of "love" for them.

WRONG ROVER

Set to Che La Luna, Ingrid named names when it came to pups she'd avoid as a dog trainer.

First, she said she would never own a German Sepherd.

She gave her reasoning as the dogs are not known for respecting "personal space."

Next, she said no to the French Bulldog — a small dog with notably large ears.

"I cannot afford to go to the vet weekly," she gave as her reasoning.

"[I cannot] have a dog that's allergic to the world."

According to the , French Bulldogs — or Frenchies — are susceptible to a variety of ailments.

"Due to their unique physical characteristics, Frenchies regularly contract skin issues," the Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine said.

"[Skin issues] such as skin fold, acute moist, and/or contact dermatitis, pyoderma (a bacterial skin infection), and canine acne.

"Furthermore, food and/or environmental allergies in French bulldogs, from a host of possible sources, can result in either skin or gastrointestinal issues."

She also said no to Boston Terriers, citing behavioral issues.

SAY IT DON'T SHRED IT

One dog breed in particular had Ingrid concerned over potential damage it could cause to the home.

She said she would never own a Husky dog as a pet — a canine known for its distinct look.

"I like my things and don't need them shredded for funsies," she said.

"Also, I don't want a dog that talks back."

According to a , Huskies may be more difficult to train due to their independent nature.

She also said no to the Belgian Malinois for lifestyle differences.

Finally she recommended steering clear of any dogs that were bred without its health in mind.

CROWD REACTION
