Pet Industry Worker Sparks Debate After Explaining The Five Dog Breeds She Would Never Own

Pet Industry Worker Sparks Debate After Explaining The Five Dog Breeds She Would Never Own
@chilicheesechelsea/TIkTok

If we really think about it, we've more than likely known at least one "crazy dog person" in our life—that person who defends the dog breed preferred by their family at all costs. If we're being honest, that person may have even been us.

A woman on TikTok who goes by Chelsea or "Miss Chili Cheese" brought many of the more passionate dog people out of the woodwork last month when she began calling out the dog breeds she would never, ever own. Her series of videos went viral with impassioned, and at times inflammatory, comments.


Chelsea captioned the video with a disclaimer:

"DISCLAIMER: I love these breeds, but I don't want to own one of my own."
"Don't come for me, doodle moms."
"IT'S JUST MY OPINION! (And a joke, as I have a chihuahua, lol [laughing out loud].)"

The video opened with a text overlay that reads:

"Dog breeds I would never own after working in the pet industry."

The first dog breed was the popular Siberian Husky, which Chelsea captioned:

"Completely unhinged and always screaming."

The five presented breeds brought some agreeable comments and many defensive ones.

DISCLAIMER: I love these breeds but I don’t want to own one of my own. Don’t come for me doodle moms 🤪🤓 IT’S JUST MY OPINION!!!! (And a joke, I have a chihuahua lol)

Chelsea followed up the video with another featuring five more breeds.

Miss Chili Cheese captioned this video with a reminder about selecting the right dog breed:

"These are my opinion and would not be fit for my home or lifestyle."
"Do your research to see what dog breed is best for you!"
"(Also, not all dogs are the same, so I'm sure your breed is an angel to you, lol.)"

You can watch the second round-up video here:

@chilicheesechelsea

THESE ARE MY OPNION AND WOULD NOT BE FIT FOR MY HOME OR LIFESTYLE. Do ur research to see what dog breed is best for you! (Also not all dogs are the same, so I’m sure your breed is an angel to you lol)

The comments section on both videos was divided.

Some viewers were understanding and agreed with Chelsea's brief evaluations of these dog breeds.

Others were incredibly defensive after having one of these breeds in their own home.

Finally, Chelsea wrapped up the conversation with a video featuring the 5 dog breeds she would definitely own:

@chilicheesechelsea

THESE ARE MY PERSONAL OPINIONS. I never recommend a dog breed to a someone bc it may not be the best fit for them or their family. Do your research to figure out what breed is best for you!

Some viewers still weren't happy, though, and questioned why Chelsea didn't feature their favorite dogs.

If Chelsea's videos have taught us anything, it's to do our research before choosing a dog breed to bring into our home.

But our research should also include the understanding an individual dog may not be fully representative of a dog breed, so the collective's perspective of the breed might not mirror an individual's experiences.

Trump Dragged After Making Ridiculous Claim About Randomly Finding Billions On The 'Tariff Shelf'

President Donald Trump was criticized after he claimed to reporters this week that officials in his administration suddenly found $30 billion they "never knew existed"—located on what Trump referred to as the "tariff shelf."

Tariffs are a tax on imported goods, usually calculated as a percentage of the purchase price. While tariffs can shield domestic manufacturers by making foreign products more expensive, they are also used as a tool to penalize countries engaged in unfair trade practices, such as government subsidies or dumping goods below market value.

Bride's Friends Surprise Her With Montage Video Of All Her Exes At Bachelorette Party—And People Are Mortified

While Jenny Han's novel To All the Boys I've Loved Before was a major hit, and even became a great film success in 2018, not everyone's married to the idea of reconnecting with their exes after the relationships end.

It might be nice to imagine staying friends after the relationships, imagining our exes missing us or regretting losing us, or even giving us an apology for the things they did wrong. But most of us pine for this for a little while, realize it's all a fairy tale, and push past it to better things and new love.

TikToker Sparks Debate After Calling Out Driver's Extremely Bright Headlights For Blinding Her

Whether we are drivers or passengers, we've all experienced that annoying, possibly painful moment of feeling like we're being blinded by a fellow driver whose headlights are far too bright for a standard car on a standard road.

But while most of us complain about it to ourselves and leave it at that, TikToker Alexa McNee stepped up for all of us and called it out.
