I'm totally with you! Sometimes I don't understand why people get so upset over size; it's a personal preference, and sometimes it's just a matter of which pup will fit best in your family, regardless of its size. And then when you have the dog, it's like having a kid; if you have a small baby, you like small babies, if you have a large baby, you think the fat rolls on babies are cute.
Don't let it bother you! You know the reason you have your dog and that is all that matters!
