Dachshund Standard Smooth
The Dachshund was originally bred to hunt small animals, so it makes sense they don’t get along with small pets such as kittens and hamsters. Many of them also suffer from small dog syndrome, making up for their size with attitude. They are only good around children if rough play is not involved, as they hate it. Also be careful to not manhandle them as they can be aggressive if they feel they are being wrongly handled.

Dalmatian
Dalmatians are another breed who were originally bred as guard dogs and for hunting small rodents. Dalmatians are also reserved towards other dogs and require constant love and socialization from their owners. These adorable spotted friends are known to bite and scratch if they don’t receive the necessary attention. If you have older kids, this may be the dog for you, as they have a lot of energy and need constant exercise.
