Mommy of Brandi · 01-26-2007, 05:34 PM

I thought when I had my toy poodle Marshmallow (he was all white) that there was no other dog as smart or beautiful........then I had two chihuahuas (that I inherited when my ex died) I didn't really love them in the beginning......but when I lost them my heart was just broken.....THEN I got Brandi.......and OMG she's the most amazing dog.....I can't even imagine not having her.......a neighbor had a yorkie when I was a child and adolescent and I will never forget Winnie......I always wanted one of my own.......but I was looking at pictures the other day.......and I saw a Yorkteese and OMG it was adorable.....I want another YORKIE!!! LOL but my son wants a bulldog.......I hope he changes his mind LOL (he got me my Brandi)

For me, a toy poodle. I have had my white toy "Tinker" for 3 years. She is so intelligent. She has learned several tricks. She can sit up, roll over, and her favorite trick is jumping through a hula hoop! She does require extensive grooming, which I have learned to do myself. She was also easy to potty train. She has been a real life saver for my husband who has been disabled for the last 5 years. I can't imagine life without her.

HAve you ever seen the movie, How to lose a guy in 10 days? The dog that Kate Hudson brought to Matthew Mcconaghay's house that peed all over the pool table and everything else was a Chinese Crested.
If I ever got another dog besides a yorkie, first I would want a Biewer even tho it is still a yorkie so that may not count but also I would love a maltese. They are both beautiful.

even tho I have a cocker and she is one of the best dogs ever, I have to say that one of my favorite toy breeds is the papillon. they are just so beautiful and sooooooooo soft.

I also love Italian Greyhounds but dont' think they are in the "toy" group. I used to have one...here is a pic of him. If they were in the toy group, I would pick them. but since I dont think they are...I am going to pick the pappy. I would love to own one some day.

here's the iggy (italian greyhound) his ears never laid down like they were supposed to but it just added to his character LOL

oh...here is a pic of Theo (iggy) with my cocker..daisy

Toy poodles. Our family had two over the years, Pompi and Cocoa. They are really the brightest dogs I've encountered, and such clowns! They are just terrific family pets and I recommend them to anyone. Contrary to the stereotype, they are not high-strung and yappy -- both of ours were very cool little dogs. I hate to admit it -- but our poodles were smarter than my little Yorkie is -- but that's OK -- I'm mad in love with my little "terror!" And what he may lack in brilliance he more than makes up for in looks, charm, sweetness, spunkiness and just plain snuggliness beyond compare!

I wish I never posted asking for 'toy' breed favorites...as there are soooooooo many beautiful breeds of every kind! I have had two cockers in my life and LOVED them dearly...I miss them so bad too but yorkies are quite special too!! Love your italian greyhound..how big are they??

he was about 11 lbs

very hyper, very hard to train, and very hard to housebreak. but that is just because their attention span is so short. they grow out of it, but it seems to take them a little longer than some other breeds. but they have the sweetest, most loving, most adoring little hearts. they are totally loyal and love you more than imaginable.

scrapindee · 01-26-2007, 08:36 PM

Biewer Terriers and Havanese. I've owned Lhasa Apsos too.

Morkie4 · 01-26-2007, 08:42 PM

Hands down, a maltese and then a silky terrier in the toy breeds. But if we are talking bigger breed.......an Australian Shepherd!!! Blue Merle!

cheeselover8481 · 01-27-2007, 02:26 PM

Maltese, Pappillion, and Pom. My sister has a Pom, but she's not like a typical Pom. She's real calm and sleeps all day. However, a typical Pom behavior it to be hyper and playful.
