My father had Shih Tzus and my grandparents had one. They were very very smart. When my grandfather would come in from the store Brandy would know immediately that he had treats in his pocket. Pop would put them on the top of his dresser and Brandy would stand and bark at the dresser as if to say I know you have them, now hand them over! She went everywhere with Pop, hung out in the garage with him all day while he tinkered and was his best friend. They had her for 18 years. Pop always said that he wanted to be burried with her but Pop went first. I don't think Brandy ever got over Pop not being there.

I think a lot of a dog's personality really does come from how they are raised.

Now let's see, a breed I don't care for. Pugs. They are too funny and really make me smile when I see them but don't care for the short hair that sheds and gets in everything and don't care thier slobbery, goopy faces with thier big bulging eyes getting all over me.

Funny thing is that every one that posts one they don't like there will be others who come just like I did with stories why they like the breed you don't. LOL
