Hehe, these were the first that came to mind

The small poo's and barks are a plus too.

I just love how they ACT so big, but have no idea. Even their hearts are huge

A big dog attitude in a small dog package!!

I love all animals, but I chose a small dog b/c I have health issues so I'm limited to how many times I can walk my baby. I exercise him in different ways. I am able to use a piddle pad and take them to anyone's house with the piddle pad.... It's very convenient!!!

sorry to hear abuot the problem with the big dog giving your little guy some problems. My big dogs would play with him, they are just as gentle, if not more so, than most little dogs.

Aw,

. Well, it's just that the other dogs we saw weren't really well trained. I don't know,

I love my little ones because they are small and have sooo great personalities.
And no one in the streets fears my tiny cuties when we are going for a walk.

But I love big dogs too - especially the dogue de bordeaux.

You can bring Baxter to come and play with my big dogs. Some people think it's funny to see big dogs pick on little dogs. My dogs are all very well socialized. I always said if my shepherd bit one person, she would be at the pound, but, she loves everyone. Its probably helped having her grow up with the golden retriever.

Their tails don't clear the coffee table!

sandyapk · 04-05-2009, 06:18 PM

Love this thread.
Last dog was 90 pounds, had to vacuum twice a day, keep pepsi off the coffee table, teach her not to sleep on the bed so I can own my own bed!

I love that when I take my little dog everyone says ahhh how cute. She fits in a purse, and cuddles so much. Yes I love my little dog. She helped heal my heart when I lost my big dog.

She is smart!!

We got our Lexi one month after our 100 lb lab passed away. And yes they truly heal your heart.

Oh good point. When I would wash Molly I would have to clean the whole bathroom afterwards. Now Mia in the sink, one towel, very little drips. Unheard of.

Don't need to get another yorkie friend because apparently Mimi thinks my hamster is his playmate lmao!

1. You can easily take them on an airplane and put them under your seat.

2. Taking your little on vacation is a breeze & brings everyone so much joy - no worrying about having left your baby behind

3. They think they are big dogs - and will give their all to protect you

4. Bottles of shampoo & conditioner can last forever!

5. You can put them in a bag & take them to Target or wherever & no one knows they are there

6. Sharing the couch is no inconvenience

7. They look adorable in clothes

8. They put a smile on everyone's face - especially if they are wearing the adorable clothes!

9. A kiss from one of these furbabies will not knock you off your feet

10. You can do all of these things so easily with more than one when they are small!

My 2 together are only about 8 pounds!

I love tiny dogs and giant dogs. Hence, why I have a yorkie and a great dane, LOL. (Complete opposite ends of the spectrum!)They're actually "his and her" dogs. Roxie is mine, and Thumbelina (the great dane. haha) is my husband's.

Of course I care about both of our dogs, but I love my little Roxie because-

her tail doesn't leave huge welts on my body when she gets excited.
she doesn't leave gallons of drool all over my kitchen floor after she drinks.
her poop isn't bigger than my 6 month old son.
she can go everywhere with me.. stores, family events, etc.
she can't eat all of my food off the table & counters as she walks by, LOL.
I can bathe her with one hand.
she is so much fun to shop for!
none of my neighbors or friends are nervous around her.
I walk her, she doesn't walk me!
she is extremely portable, as someone else said

the cuteness factor is SO high!

I have a bunch more, but I'm really tired and I need to go to bed, lol.

sandyapk · 04-05-2009, 10:16 PM

I love my small dog because she can not jump up on the counters in the kitchen and eat a 10 pound meatloaf before company arrives. LOL that was a fun night. LOL unbelievable I know!

LOL that reminds me of a beagle mix my older kids had when they were little, I had a turkey on the counter and turned my back on it for a minute.. turned around and Snoopy (I know so original..kids dog, kids name) had taken the turkey. I called a dog trainer the next day LOL!
