In the final episode of our breed guidance series for new dog owners, Jack and expert trainer Max O’Neil explore the large dog breeds that might not be the best fit for first-timers. These dogs may look impressive—and often are loyal, intelligent, and deeply rewarding companions—but some come with big physical and behavioural needs that can overwhelm novice owners.
From powerful working breeds to independent protectors with strong instincts, Max explains which large breeds require experienced handling, consistent training, and environments that many first-time owners may not be ready to provide. These aren’t “bad” dogs by any stretch—they're just a better match for those with prior experience or a specific lifestyle.
If you’re dreaming of a large breed as your first dog, this episode is a must-listen. We’ll help you avoid common pitfalls, understand the realities of raising and living with a big dog, and steer you toward making a decision that benefits both you and your future four-legged friend.
