Isn't that the kicker.. when someone decides they don't "like" you, after you reveal some *truths* to them?! I hate that too!

Well... I think the strategy I would use here would be to try to explain to her the fragile nature of this dog. Most people I have told about this fact , are surprised. They don't understand how easily the little bones can snap... how a hug that's just a bit too hard, can be life and death.

I'm sure your niece is a very responsible 14 year old, I would just try my hardes to encourage her to pick a slightly sturdier breed. This is when I think some young girls like Paris and Britney, etc.... and think a toy dog is the only kind they can love

Good luck! Best case, you'll inherit the little pup!!
