A vet nurse has revealed the dog breed that scares her most – and it’s not one you’d expect. Forget Rottweilers or German Shepherds; the breed that leaves her most unnerved is the Border Collie. In a TikTok video shared by @eve_the_veterinary_nurse, she explained why the clever and energetic Border Collie makes her uneasy. “What breed of dog scared me as a vet nurse? This answer for me is so easy. Is it a staffie? Absolutely not. No, they are just potatoes, they are just cute and lovely. German Shepherds, Rottweilers, no absolutely not." Surprising many, Eve revealed, "It’s a Border Collie, and you can’t tell me otherwise." One person commented on the video: "Had the most beautiful, loyal, highly intelligent border collie growing up, never knew a dog like him before or since he was like a human, BUT he did absolutely hate the vet.".
Eve’s fear comes from the breed’s intelligence and fast reflexes. She explained: “They unnerve me. Why would a Border Collie be scared of me? They will literally go head to head with a cow. Not only that, they are so clever. They outwit you straight away.".
Another person commented: "YES! I worked in at a farm vet years ago and nobody believes me to this day that that was our number 1 breed PTS for behavioural problems/aggression." Whilst a third person commented: "The problem is a lot of people have no business owning them, & don’t understand the breed." Who Eve replied to and agreed with.
The vet nurse went on to describe how Border Collies can turn from sweet to feisty in an instant. “The tolerance level is like this,” she said, pinching her fingers together in the video. She mentions that there is little room to make an error with these dogs because they will nip you if they have to. Despite her reservations, Eve acknowledged that not all Border Collies are like this. “Now, if you have a lovely Border Collie, that is the nicest dog you’ve ever met in your life. They are just so cute. But the other Border Collies, they are unhinged.”.
