BELGIAN MALINOIS
First on the vet tech's list is the Belgian Malinois, or Belgian Shepherd, which she said was an "obvious choice".
She described the dog as "pretty neurotic" and prone to aggression.
The vet tech explained that people generally buy this breed because they want a "strong alpha" dog to lead their pack.
She believes that as many of these dogs are trained in one language, which is to be expected, but the language isn't English, they will be unresponsive and potentially volatile.

GERMAN SHEPHARD
Second on her list is the German Shepherd, but she added that she is biased, as her arm was once almost bitten off by one.
"It was pretty painful and I will have that scar forever," she said.
The vet tech described German Shepherds as "giant babies" and "drama queens" that hate it when you touch them.
She said that training for this breed is "imperative".

She explained that they are very loud, very vocal and very hard to touch.

She said that the worst dog attack she had ever witnessed was caused by this breed and revealed that she saw the dog slice someone's face open.
Cane Corso's were bred for fighting and guarding and are said to be extremely aggressive if not trained properly.
FANS REACT
The vet tech's video has likely struck a chord with many people, as it has racked up over 900,000 views on the video-sharing platform.
TikTok users raced to the video's comments section to share their thoughts.
One person said: "I knew Corso was going be on this list which makes me sad because my Corso is the sweetest but they are definitely a scary breed".
A second person said: "I'm a Belgian Malinois owner and they are so very anxious and are 1000% not for first-time dog owners.
"They are a lot of work!"
A third remarked: "Every Cane Corso I've ever met belonged to a man who literally trained his dog to attack at a word.
"It’s so sad."
A fourth chimed in: "I've heard that Corgis are also some of vets worst nightmares.
