Tell Me What I Need to Know About Small Dogs by Breed

Posted on Oct 15 in Generally Speaking, Types of Small Dogsby Jeff K.Print

“This is the internet, darn it! Tell me what I need to know about the different breeds of small dogs or I’ll move on to the next website that does.”

Okay, okay, I’m with you. Here it comes. I am going to send you to another website to do this, because it presents the essential information pretty well. The site was created by a woman named Beverly Lee, who I believe is British. You will see reference to a few dogs that are available in Europe but rare in the U.S. Before I send you off, here are some points to keep in mind:

The descriptions listed at this website are based upon an a standard of perfection. I’ll say that again. The listings describe dogs that are perfect examples of their breed. As you know, no dog is perfect. Most dogs will vary greatly from their breed’s physical description and, more importantly, from the description of the breed’s temperament.

Okay, almost there; (and, if you skip down to the link without reading this next part, I am going to kick you in the butt.) Know this about researching breeds: If you shop for a dog as you would shop for a car or a stereo by comparing statistics and performance data, you are going to be sorely disappointed with your choice. So why am I referring you to a website that does exactly that? Because this is the internet darn it, and we want what we want. Come back here when you have finished your search for a real-world discussion of small dog behavior, training, and care.
