How refreshing actually someone that speaks English and not some robot

I work in a kennels and I've had many golden retrievers and labradors in and they are the worst. They constantly bark and hate being alone. I just feel like they shouldn't be on this list, just saying

The one dog that can be left alone: Cat.

I used to have a miniature schnauzer who passed away at the age of 12. She was a very obedient and quiet dog. Everytime when I work from home or watch TV in.living room. She will sit beside me until bedtime. She was the greatest dog. I missed her so much.

I have a Lhasa Apso adopted. Best dog. When I leave I make sure the tv is on. She is so good. Never into mischief. Not a toy player. Definitely a good pet for older people as doesn’t require a lot of exercise

I’ve known a Scottish terrier for 10 years. He was a very very peaceful dog. He was very aware. But was very very stubborn when going for walks. He never bit anyone or any dog in his whole life. He was very tolerant but up to a certain point. But he never bit even then, he just went away showing clearly his intentions. He loved me and I him. Sometimes I would feel dull or “down” if you will. Then he could feel it. And he knew that I was in a really bad state of mind and would be extra tolerant of me. Even let me pet or be with him even if he didn’t want to. And he knew it was a little uncomfortable for him sometimes but even then he would be so tolerant and never bite me. Though he was not a big fan of being picked up or cuddled like other dogs tend to do. He was an Scottish terrier with a wolf’s determination and spirit.

Urm greyhounds should be added to this they literally sleep all day

I got a goldador she's 3 and does pretty good by herself at home but when you get home don't expect a calm quiet greeting she swarms you like you've been gone for years lol

Double check the animals on this list. A lot of them have separation anxiety and can not be alone.

🤣 as I watch this with my Shiba Inu stuck to my hip. He missed the memo that he should be independent 🐕 he is the clingiest dog I’ve owned 🤷‍♀️

also dont get a daschund/sausage dog/whatever you want to call them unless you have a lot of money for vet bills as back problems are common

I got to labradors and realized this person needs to do more research.

I'd have to place the Scottie to the number 1 spot! I raised Scotties and was a breeder of 23 pups! They do excellent at home alone, best breed I've ever had.......love my Scotties

My dachshund has terrible separation anxiety. She barks, cries and howls every time I left her home alone.

My Bostons had terrible separation anxiety. My dad’s did too. Great loving dogs but high strung and even destructive when alone.

My mini schnauzer dogs are so different from one another. My girl loves to interact with people and can literally be in the middle of any get together (but is usually picked up and curled on someone’s lap). She loves car rides where she hopes to go somewhere that has new people or pups to meet. My boy could care less about anyone but his immediate family. He hates going anywhere and prefers to be home alone. With that being said, Both are good at being home alone so I’m glad to see they are on this list. Although their owners really are the ones with separation anxiety from them! 🤣

As someone who has owned two dachshunds before, what is said in this video is true and in my experience they are not as fragile as some books say they are a surprisingly sturdy breed for dispite how there built though I will advise to not let them jump on or off high furniture at lest if possible they still arnt as sturdy as a lot of other breeds but they are incredibly loyal and loving.

People searching for these type of videos, have no business owning a dog. All dogs need love and attention!

We have boston terriers (2) they are excellent....and ours were trained @ and early age. ❤ them...and "yes" we work.

My Shiba is literally the most velcro dog I've ever seen. Had a real problem with leaving him alone, since he'd howl and scream like mad.

Lhasa apso are so accurate! My dog is a half lhasa apso and I adopted her because I wanted a companion but I realized quickly she's not that type of dog but she is the best.

As other comments have mentioned, it's not so much the dog breed, but how you train them and get them accustomed to being alone. Of course the more independent breeds will have an easier time of learning. There are plenty of videos showing how you can do this. If you start from when you first get your puppy, it will be easier.

My Maltese is well behaved when left alone and super sweet and welcoming we're back home. Such a patient sweet heart.

Have two dogs Problems solved

My rough collie does well but he needs his long walks/ runs every day.

Basenji's are so beautiful oh my gosh

I have two mini schnauzers and they are ADORABLE

I have a minature schnauzer/poodle mix at home. Cries every time she can't get in the bedroom or if someone gets out of the car lol. Severrrreee separation anxiety from my mom, she literally rips her own fur out when parents are on vacation

Basenji? -- I've had them over 20 years and bred several litters - I love them plus they are short haired, clean themselves like cats, use their paws in the most adorable way, are generally healthy, love on you a lot, can be absolutely silly and are a nice size. Basenjis don't bark rather they make a baroo/yodel sound when they are happy and have a whole array of noises so they aren't by any means silent all the time. But to stay on point it depends on the individual if they can be left alone. We only have one of our homebreds now and she's fine alone. But they are very, very curious, as in 'hey, what's inside the sofa?' I actually heard that exact line before I left out my tribe to go to a childbirth class and Stella ripped two holes in the sofa and then the three of them pulled out some of the enemy (aka Polyfill, for some reason they all hate that stuff). They also work as a group if you have several - like the velociraptors in Jurassic Park - one will distract you while the others go steal something from the kitchen that's been left out. Like the carton of eggs. So know your dog(s) well and limit them to part of the house until you are sure. And really many aren't easy to train as no matter how attuned they are to you; they are both sight and scent hounds so other things get their attention. I would never leave one off leash because of that unless they are working (lure coursing, racing, doing agility). They love an enclosed yard so they can open up and run (they get the 'zoomies' ike greyhounds do). I had one that would track airliners en route to PHL and we are 25 miles out so the planes were probably at 17,000 ft. But all that said I wouldn't have anything else. (sorry for the treatise). You have to go to a qualified breeder and meet the mom (and dad if present) to be sure the breed is for you.

Scottish Terrier is #1 in my heart.

I miss my Schnauzer so bad. She loved everyone and didn't need a leash although she wore her collar like a diamond ring. I have a MC club and when we had parties she would greet everybody and would travel around being social. I didn't have to watch her at all. She was so faithful. My new pup has to be with me 24/7 she's a Chug = Chihuahua Pug

When we had our Labrador and then Flatcoated Retrievers we were both working. They were happy to see us go off in the morning and slept all day. They weren't too impressed when holidays came around and their routine was disturbed.

The dogs in Lady & the Tramp were a Cocker Spanial (Lady) and a Schnauzer mix (Tramp). Schnauzers are the best! I've had 2 and will never own any other breed again. Give them a treat as you walk out the door & they're fine.

I have a miniature Schnauzer and he is terrible with being alone, other dogs and people even us he bites and growls all the time. We also have a Goldendoodle and he is great with being left alone as long as when you are home you give him attention and affection

I got 2 poodles so they have each other as well as me.

My standard poodle stays on her bed the entire time I’m gone. She won’t even venture into the kitchen for her food until I’m home.

I got lucky with my mini schnauzer. She doesn't mind being left alone for hours. But i make sure she gets her daily walk, play and cuddle time. Sge would also let me know if she needs a potty break so i can let her out. She gets jealous of my phone though and won't stop pawing me until i put it down, 😂

When you have a dog, leaving them alone is not my choice... They are the best companions to have around.

No Japanese Chin? They are THE BEST apartment dog that there is! Small, independent, but attentive when you are there. Most people are not aware of how quiet they are. They will bark on occasion but they are very sensible and definitely not the type of dog that likes to hear itself bark.

I've lived with 5 dachshunds. Doxies want to be around you ALL the time. Moses has separation anxiety bad. Fritz wouldn't distory the house, put a baby gate in front of him and the plastic part was destroyed.

Our beagles have been fine left alone - no anxiety, but they're smart so make sure they can't get into mischief. Ours figured out how to open cupboards, so we had to put on child locks! Good at being independent but still loving.

Both of our Mini Schnauzers have done great alone at home. Our female was more aloof as they often are, but the male we have now is a total lover yet he does just great at home. He has a back yard and dog door as well as a full light front door he can watch the world go by through.

Lol my grandmas dash hound starts crying when she leaves the house without her

All dogs can be left alone depending on their temperament, upraising and breeding. My Barbet has had depression anxiety since she was a pup and the breeders, though with training and consistency is now able to left alone and out of a crate (2 years old). My Labrador is amazing left alone, has never crated or whines (as long as she has had an energy release). Since day one she’s been so easy to leave alone. Though her sister doesn’t like to be left alone but is getting use to it (14 weeks old). My barbet was weened earlier then should of been from mom which can create a separation anxiety. Where as my Labrador was bred from calm family pets and was weened on time.

I am surprised to see the Mini Schnauzer listed as the number 1 dog on this list. I have one that I cannot leave alone because she barks for hours, she has separation issues, and I have left her with another mini (a very independent one), and yet she barks a lot. LOL. But, in all fairness, my little one is a rescued dog. We adopted her when she was already an adult dog. So, God knows what happened to her to justify her separation anxiety.

I have a Scottie mix. 💯 % true. He’s awesome.

Newfoundland’s should be on this list they are fluffy and cuddly and intelligent they can be hard to train from time to time but they get through it, they are also good Snugglers haha! They are perfectly fine with u being away for a few hours even if u work full time! I 100% suggest Newfoundlands!

Cairn and yorkie terriers. Very independent and hates being fussed with too much.

Glad I'm getting a Lhasa Apso

Corgis are also pretty good at being left home alone for they use there own toys and entertain themselves

Miniature Schnauzers are the BEST dogs EVER!!!! I just KNEW that they would be #1❤❤❤❤

I got a shar pei, amazing breed, just perfect character for me. Mine is super chill and really easy going, she will listen to my commands always without even raising or changing the tone of my voice, it is like she is really aware of what is going on all the times. I wish she liked to be petted more often, but she is so independent that after a while she will move a couple of steps away and sit close to me playing with a stick or something. She likes company a lot but keeping a bit of distance after a while. I respect her Just be sure to socialize her from very young age, both with humans and dogs. Do it with dogs you know are good natured, shar pei fighting instinct can appear and will be tough to change. Not only that but they have a bit of an aggressive playstyle, liking to jump on dogs necks and making strange sounds that might scare other breeds. You can also change that but it is normal for them, shar pei packs do play like this and never get inti fights but because they know

I don't want to come home from work to find my Beagle/Aussie cattle dog tore my couch in half. I kennel trained him. He doesn't seem to mind. I'm usually home by 1pm then I take him out for some exercise. He loves to run and sniff around for rabbits. He's pretty good at finding them,but I'd never let him catch one. We've got so many rabbits around here it's crazy.

Our Labradors have always been fine left alone during the day. They love when you come home and always want to be with us, but they can be alone. You just have to train your dog. Labradors are great because they can make amazing working dogs, but they make a great family dog too. They’re also pretty healthy and can live quite long considering their size. I love my dog! 🥰🐶

Chows also dont mind being left alone. Medium energy. A lot like the Sharpei.

Finnish Spitz are independent and don't mind being left alone for long periods. They should be added to your list. I have over 40 years experience with the breed.

Surely, every dog is unique, my shepherd / retriever was mostly good at home, but cried and didn't eat for 3 days when having to stay at a dog kennel ... I usually took her on most of my trips except a few times when. I had to fly out of state 😅

01:23 Iggyyyyyyy!!!!!! You are alive!!!!!!

I have a king Charles cavalier, who never had an issue when left alone, she lies by the front door waiting for you to get home. Then we added a small chi chi to our family, and although they both love going for outings and car rides, when left alone, they both now snuggle together at the front door, which they never do otherwise! It's kinda funny how the little queen Chihuahua becomes so affectionate to the much larger yet inferior to her cav sister when left alone. We have security cameras, so we have witnessed this countless times! 😄

I've got two Tibetan terriers and they're great alone

I disagree with this video. Dachshunds are one of the breeds that ARE prone to separation anxiety.

Gotta love the mini schnauzer

If you leave the dog at home alone he needs two long walks a day, no less. Many people don't walk their dogs enough. Even these calm breeds will suffer if they don't get enough exercize every day. I have lived with Scotties and Lhasas. They're content to sit in the window or front porch and guard the home base all day but only if they get enough walks and playtime.

help!! my puppy ranger is 10 months old. he’s a german shepherd husky mix, and he chews up everything, barks whines and cries, and gets into the trash when he’s left by himself. really sweet dog, just can’t be left alone. most recently he ripped up the couch and keeps making the hole bigger😔

Any dog can stay home it just requires training.If you don’t have time to train I recommend running around with your dog on the weekend when you have time don’t wash the shirt so the next time you leave your pup will sniff that shirt because they love ❤️ your sent.And it will feel like your right next to them. This is because dogs have a stronger sent than us and when they smell us they know we’re around but if they chewing a shirt that you wear.Maybe try a hat that has gotten small so if there’s a piece of clothing you don’t wear anymore like a hat let them chew that.I hope this helps! ❤️ ❤️❤️

Shiba's can be left alone and be completely fine. They don't give a crap about you, only themselves lol.

Ive had a cocker spaniel, Doberman and a jack Russel. They all have been fine on their own and not in a cage.

My Cairn has been incredible left home alone !

Please do a video on The Shiba Inu. I saw one a few weeks ago and loved its calm and confident demeanor. Please correct the spelling of the dog breed I mentioned if required.

Other videos I've watched have said boston terriers get very bad seperation anxiety so surprised to see them on this list!

This report is precious!

We don't usually leave our dogs alone for a long time. But our old Chinese Sharpei, when we're all doing our thing. He does his thing as well, which is usually sunbathe in the sun. We don't know why he loves hanging out in the sun, outside our house but we ain't interrupting.

Basenjis are more catlike than doglike.

Schnauzers are great, but they are CRAZY LOUD. I've had three and they bark a lot.

Had a shar pei a few years ago, she didn't like being left alone. Would dig out and stay in the front yard if everyone left the house. Maybe had a really attached shar pei.

We're about to get a Mini-Schnauzer, he's coming next month. Can't wait! I think it's going to be ME that won't want to leave him home alone! 😆

I had a shiba inu if we left her she would cry until we came back

I had a Shiba/Schnauzer mix. Best Dog ever!

Shibe is a 10/10!

My Shelties have done well while I worked. Schnauzers are way too barky

Dogs just shouldn’t be alone

Tbh I think any dog breed can be left home alone it all depends on how you train them and getting them use to your routine, it’s just different breeds will take longer than others.

Looks like my next dog🦮

I have had many daschunds..they are great dogs.have never had any destruction!

Ive recently rescued a street dog, probably about one years old. Could have been abandoned or lost as he quickly learns some commands. Doesn’t like the lead so much but biggest problem that developed after about a week was if he sees another dog whilst walking he goes mad, getting very agitated and im afraid to take him out now. How can i train this behaviour?

Scottish terriers are the best. So loyal

My dad has a half chiwawa half corgi her names gizzy she’s so cute

Potty train all dogs. Defeats purpose to get dog sitter when baby. Dog will not know when you are coming home. Consistent training means use little fenced area on tile floor, bed. Food water.

So hard to find a basenji in England. 😪

No highly intelligent, highly active dog is going to be particularly comfortable being left alone for extended hours. Several of these breeds are bred to be pack hunters and lap dogs. These dogs can be prone to anxiety and destructive tendencies when without social stimulation, their intelligence making them naturally stubborn and with curiosity that can easily get them into trouble. Most dogs with good training and adjustment can be fine. The Basenji and the Lhasa are probably the only two on this list that I can really agree with. Great Danes are actually listed as "apartment" dogs with their more easy-going and relaxed personalities, they could easily beat out most of the dogs listed here. And the "goldador" isn't a breed. Labs and Golden's both can swing in the spectrum from sedate, gentle giants to completely neurotic. They need work and activity to be happy and stimulation or they can be destructive. Someone who isn't home enough to provide this is likely to have more issues with destructive tendencies and escape attempts.

I have a broken shiba. She howls the place down if I so much as go to the shop. Even if my partner is home!

Uhhh GREAT DANES.... Hello!!!???!! Lol!!

my German shepherd, brindle bull mastiff and red nose APBT all can be left alone by themselves. the only problem is my oversized Dobermann and my girlfriend. they can never leave me alone especially when they see me in the sofa! they're so jealous when they couldnt get their favorite TV channnels! 🤣🤣

Can the cavalier king charles spaniel stay home alone ? (I'm in high school so i can't be here all day (8 hours per day) and i don't want my dog to be sad)

6:51 the meme dog

My Boston terrier has very bad separation anxiety. Will stay on our bed and will not move till I come home. Even with her favorite food in her bowl

Three cheers for the Pom. it should have been included.

Both my Dobes are well behaved can be left alone for two three hrs.and I think two together keep company

Hii I have a great Dane puppy, just want to know could I leave him alone for half an hour howlong he can be alone Because I just don't want him to suffer from anxiety

7:19 The Shiba Inu wants meth ;)
