I grew up with big dogs (but my family also has lots of land), so this is my first small pup. People keep on saying, why would you get such a small dog.
My response is.....I live in a city and in an apartment at that. Here in Las Vegas we also don't have backyards. Usually you walk out your backdoor and a wall greets you, just 3 feet away. Yorkies are great apartment dogs and don't need much space to be happy. I don't think it is fair to get a big dog like a Lab who would need lots of space to run and pool to swim in.
Usually shuts them up.
Also, when I first told my sister about my Maggie, she said why would you get a yappy dog? Then her dogs started to bark (loudly). I said, and your dogs don't bark. She said point taken. |
