1. When they jump on you to greet you, their nails don't scratch you. (I came home from the Braves game yesterday, sun burnt ridiculously bad, and Bailey, my roommate's big dog, kept jumping on me and scratching my hurting legs. Of course, not her fault, and I still love her no matter what... but Baxter didn't hurt at all when he jumped up at me.)
2. You can pick them up with one hand.
3. You can carry them anywhere you want.
4. Their poop is small, so if there is an accident in the house, it only takes a quick pick-up to clean.
5. They don't eat a lot.
6. They can sleep in the bed with you.
7. They have smaller crates. Meaning less expensive crates.
8. Everyone always says, "AW! HOW CUTE!"
9. They don't need a TON of exercise.
10. They look so cute when they are jumping at your bed, trying so hard to get up, but they just can't jump that high.
11. They are easy to travel with.
... Now everyone else, add anything you can think of. Why do you love your small furbaby?
P.S. I did this because yesterday I had two, bad experiences with two, big puppies. And please no one take offense. I LOVE big dogs just as much as small dogs. I want to adopt a big dog when I move into a house one day. I'm only doing this because yesterday made me realize how much I love Baxter, my small little baby.
