There are advantages to owning a bigger dog and advantages to owning a smaller dog. Personally, I like mine to be within the standard of what they are supposed to be.

However, the most important thing is that you have a healthy dog that you love and care for! Who really cares how much it weighs or what it looks like? Its your dog and if you love it, I say BRAVO to you!!

Bravo! You made some excellent points!
