People ask me all the time which dogs bite the most. The answer isn’t always comfortable. But it needs to be honest. In my experience, Border Collies are one of the most common biters — but it’s usually low-level herding biting. Nipping ankles. Grabbing hands. Chasing movement. It’s genetic behaviour that needs channeling, not punishment. German Shepherds can also have strong biting tendencies. That’s exactly why I’ve gone to serious lengths to train my own properly.

Which popular dog breeds are the worst behaved? This might surprise you. The three breeds I get asked for help with the most are: Dachshunds. Border Collies. German Shepherds. Now here’s the real question… Is that because they’re badly behaved? Or is it because they’re extremely popular - so there are simply more of them? Dachshunds are bold, stubborn little hunters. Border Collies are intense, driven working dogs. German Shepherds are powerful, intelligent and highly responsive to their environ

Choosing a dog based purely on how they look without doing any research is an incredibly risky business and is NOT something that I would recommend you do. My mission is to keep dogs out of shelters and off euthanasia tables and that’s why I am so passionate about people choosing the right breed for them as that tends to set people up for success straight away. If you’re an avid hiker and get a dog that may look cool but is definitely not built for that kind of lifestyle, it is absolutely not fa

Will Atherton (MSc) on Instagram: "Thinking about rescuing a dog? 🐾 Here’s what I tell everyone: expect either a whirlwind of chaos… or a dog that’s completely shut down. Both need the same thing — structure, calm, and time. Rescues often come with baggage. You’ve got to be ready to work through behaviour problems that might already be embedded. But with the right approach, you can give them a second chance at life — and earn the most rewarding bond you’ll ever have with a dog. If you’re bringi

Will Atherton (MSc) on Instagram: "One of the biggest mistakes I see new puppy owners make? 💥 Waiting too long to start teaching their dog how to be calm and comfortable on their own. Separation anxiety doesn’t come out of nowhere - it builds when we don’t show our dogs how to settle, self-soothe, and feel safe without us there. That’s why it’s absolutely crucial to start from day one. Not week two. Not once they’ve “settled in.” The first 24 hours with your puppy matter more than you think. Cr
