I used to dislike small dogs. Like chihuahuas, Pomeranians, etc. Toy breeds, I guess. Still kinda-sorta do.
I don't like barking. Never have, never will. Especially inside.
And small dogs are usually the worst offenders.
However, my brother's family (really my nephews) has a little chihuahua mutt named Lulu. She does like to bark, but she has somehow found a way into my heart. If you sit down, she's in your lap so fast it will make your head swim. And she will instantly fall asleep.
If only someone could find a way to stop her from yapping.
