    I like the little guys!!! Maybe it's because they tend to have a longer life span, and of course, they can sit on my lap and don't weigh more than I do!!!

    I love most all dogs, and if I were to have a big dog, I think it would probably be a Golden or an Old English Sheepdog!

    I love all dogs. I've usually had larger dogs in my lifetime though, with the exception of the miniture pinscher we had for 17 1/2 years. But we've always had Labs, German Shepherds, Australian Shepherds and mixed breed medium to large dogs.
    One of these days I'd like to get a small breed dog, but I have to convince Bruce that they are not all yippy dogs. Maybe when that time comes I'll take a trip to Florida and meet up with Traci (WELOVESPUPPIES).
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Most of my dogs would be considered large. The few small dogs I've had,
    I considered were my wife's dogs. Without exception they were all
    neurotic.

    Make um big thank you.

    Just let me know when

    I love all sizes from itty bity chis to the largest of breeds. Would I want to own them all, no and for differnt reasons. I think different sizes offer different things. Large breeds can be rough housed with on the floor, give you a much better sense of security and big wet sloppy kisses Small breeds can go just about any where, just ask Chopper haha. They are great lap warmers too and give lots of little kisses.

    I have to disagree with the yapping of small breeds. Of course it is all in how they are raised. Would I be lying if I said my little ones don't bark, of course I would they are dogs after all despite their small stature but they know when to bark and when not too. Now my neighs yorkie on the other hand.....
