Small dog recommendations

[fieldmouse3]

Pugs are my favorites...it's pretty darn near impossible to be in a bad mood around one! I also like Bichon Frises (curly white dogs), and shih tzus. I DO have speak against Jack Russells, though....the ones I've known have all been great with people, for the most part, but very aggressive with other dogs and not prone to a lot of lap-sitting. Pugs, even, can be a little bit more energetic than the other breeds I mentioned. Bichons probably do the most lap-sitting. I work at a doggie daycare and boarding place, and not long ago we had about 6 of them in to stay with us for awhile. EVery time I'd go back to sit on the couches with the dogs, I'd end up with a lapful of fluffy white dogs.

. If you're going to get a dog I'd suggest a lhasa apso. None have ever been reported with bad behaviour. They are small with no hereditary health issues. They look like mini english sheepdogs, but I groom mine to keep the hair shorter. Don't feel daunted by a long coat because electric clippers cost $150 and you can keep it as short as you like. My friend even has one in a retirement village - she got permission because Lhasa's are so kind & quiet unless intruders tru to break in. Your visitors will be welcomed with kisses!

Of course, I'm biased!
