I’m a veterinarian and there are six dogs that always end up costing the owner the most in medical bills.
CHOOSING the breed of dog that is best for you and your family is a tough decision to make.
After all, there are so many different factors to consider – one of the most important being the health tendencies of the breed.

Vet med Lindsey Whitlock, who posts under the acronym @dogtor_lindsey, recently took to TikTok and posted a video sharing six dog breeds that “walk vet bills.”
Lindsey’s list includes: Golden Doodles/Any Doodle, Boxer, Cocker Spaniel, Shih Tzu, Pit Bull Terrier and a Sharpei.
She captioned the post: “Breeds that are a walking vet part TWO! Trust me, it’s more than brachycephalic!”
The post has since gone viral, racking up 913,000 views and hundreds of comments.
“We must be lucky. Our doodle is not a walking vet bill. More like a walking grooming bill,” one wrote.

A second wrote: “Have a doodle and ZERO health or behavior issues. She’s awesome.”
A third noted: “I was like wait why pit bull??? And then I remembered the thousands I let down on mine allergy issues.”
Meanwhile, a fourth commented: “Very ok on boxers. But they are still my favourite.”
Another said: “My Shih Tzu too – constant allergies and ear infections.”
And another added: “My £24,890+ ($30,000+) Shih Tzu vet bulls can attest to being on this list. Thanks for the pet insurance haha.”
