We have four small Yorkies, and my husband adores them and dotes on them almost as much as I do. When he comes in from work every day, he gives me a hug and kiss then lies down on the floor to play with the dogs, and he's not effeminate by any means. If people think you're weird just because you have miniature dogs rather than something "masculine," they likely have an issue with their own masculinity. LOL. They don't know what they're missing from being so narrow-minded
