Best small dog breed?

[01cravend]

The Mrs has been nagging me for a while now and I've finally given in and agreed to get a smaller breed of dog. Just after recommendations via experience really as I've only ever had "normal sized" ones.

Get her an hamster and some nail polish.

Border Terrier mate. After 25 years of English Bull Terriers, I downsized to a Border. Great with people, mard, soft, but will hang onto somebodies knackers if needed.

Get a shih tzu

We've got one and he's the best dog ever. He's not very clever, In fact if he was a human he'd probably be classed as mentally retarded.
I love him to bits.

Another shout for a shih tzu. My friend has one and it's is the cutest, friendliest thing I've ever seen. And I hate dogs.
Plus you can get cute outfits for them and they fit in a handbag :-)

Pug, french bulldog or boston terrier. They look so funny!

Owned a few different small breeds in the past, however the one that I'd have again without any second thought is a Jack Russell.

Totally surprised me as it's a breed I'd purposely avoided due to some bad rep I'd listened to whilst growing up. Can only speak for the one I owned, but it had a great personality - a mixture of loyalty, tolerance around any ages, cheekiness and bravery.

We have a Shih Tzu. Great dog no mess easy to walk and really friendly. His name is Tojo.
