I seem to be way more protective of Rasta(yorkie) than of our family English Bulldog. I am protective of Roxie, but she definitely gets to do certain things Rasta isn't. Roxie can stay outside and potty with me checking in on her every 10 mins, sniff around, not as worried of a stranger stealing her (she's 50+ lbs of muscle) even though bulldogs are sought after too. Rasta can do none of those things plus more. I don't let people pet him(I'm a germaphobe), he hardly ever goes outside and when he does it's always with me less than 5 ft away, etc. Sometimes I think I'm not allowing him to live his life to the fullest because I may be too protective. Anyone else feel this way?
