I WAS a big dog person. Chows and GSD...I used to think little dogs didn't serve any purpose. They couldn't be good watch dogs, kind of a waste of the word dog (I believe i remember saying that)
HOWEVER!!! God smiled down on me and the light of Yorkie love has warmed our home!!!
My dogs are so well behaved, they actually get to come to our corporate office sometimes...now I can't imagine a big dog in our home. And I wouldn't have the pleasure of 5 of us all sleeping in bed together.
