I treat all ours the same, they all live inside, get lots of One on One. And if Mandy wants up on my lap, well that's where she goes. (my poor legs!!! LOL)
Again, I would take him to see a small pup, and if he's game, I'd say go for it. |
LOL, I feel your pain...I have a lap dog trapped in a Dobie's body. It was probably not the best idea to let him sleep curled up on my chest as a puppy...It's more painful than it is cute these days. Thanks for the suggestion, I will definitely get him more used to being around small dogs before making a final decision.
