As a child we always had Shetland sheep dogs(shelties) (which are amazing dogs) but I wanted something smaller I think My first experience with yorkies was a girl in my high school who had one as a service dog to keep her focused (not sure of the details)
Then A home with three of them down the street I memorized the times they went out to potty so I could walk past when they wear out and look at them.
When I started looking at dogs seriously I started out with a list of 104 dogs under 20 lbs And worked backward from there I had it down to a french bulldog and a Yorkie(which was what I wanted) and then My family surprised me with a Yorkie for a graduation present.
while I am sure Yorkies are the breed for me I am sure I will compile a huge list again and start working down from there.
I am considering a senior golden retriever because they are amazing dogs and I know we have a rescue full of them in my area.
