Do you prefeer small dogs or big dogs and why?

[Pam]

There are lots of large breed dogs that I admire, but I'm probably the odd one here because I voted for small dogs. By that I mean a dog 40 lbs. or less. At my age right now I just think they are easier for me to care for and manage (bathing, etc.) I also love having a dog that fits nicely in my lap which Ripley does so well. Bella tries but she just sort of spills out of it.

There are terrific reasons for each of us to love large and small dogs. We have 4 wonderful "big" dogs, but I have to tell you that I would love a lap dog one day. Right now, I just have "lap cats", which suits me fine!!!

When I look at the list of breeds I like most, there are more larger dogs there than smaller dogs. But as said, they can all provide the same unconditional love.

I like large-huge sized dogs.
But, like people have said, if a small dog needed a home, then I would provide one.

Thanx to you all for posting!

If ANY dog needed a home, I sure wouldn't refuse if I could provide for it, small or large. I agree with you all on that. Any dog can love you unconditionally and provide a warm greeting when you get home from a really crummy day. I like dogs...ALL dogs!

i love medium sized dogs, like the siberian husky, GSD, ect.. ...

I guess that is counted as a large dog lol.

I love big BIG dogs too though .. like Malamutes ect..

I also love lil dogs like westies, shih tzus and yorkies ..

i could never deside.

Although my boys aren't big dogs, I prefer medium/big. I had my heart set on a border collie(x) and was pretty mad when my mom decided on a sheltie without telling me. Needless to say, I couldn't stay mad. I prefer 30 pounds and up. For my third dog that I'm getting in the next year or so, I'm hoping for a rescued rottie, pittie or gsd. All would fall into the big dog category I suppose.

It doesn't matter to me, but I would like a smaller dog when I am older just because Abby is so big and hard to lug around, like in the car when we go camping.
