I don't see anything "weird" about it. Many, many homes have multiple dogs that are different breeds and sizes. So if you have a larger dog and are a responsible pet owner, you can't also have a small dog? Strange logic unless you just don't want to supervise them properly.

I have a 90lb lab and a 4lb yorkie that get along wonderfully. BUT, no matter how good they are with each other, they are never and will never be left together unsupervised. When they are together I watch them very closely and can not let them play together, even though they want to at times. My lab would never intentionally hurt my yorkie, I have never heard him growl at another dog, NEVER and he is 7 years old. My lab could just put his paw on him during play and could hurt him.

So my opinion is that you should never leave them together unsupervised.
