    I enjoy big dogs better. I have 3 a yorkie, maltese and a Australian cattle dog. The bigger dogs are easier to house break and seem easier to train also.

    If I kick my dog in the middle of the night and don't break my foot the dog is to small... Lol

    I'm a big fan of large dogs. I really love the different mastiff breeds.

    Though I love Loki (my dachshund/pomeranian mix), let's just say that my dream dog breed is the English Mastiff. Make of that what you will.

    How cute!!!!

    I prefer larger dogs. I grew up around boxers, and my mom still owns 3 boxers. I also love pit bulls, rottys, labs, german sheps, and would LOVE great dane. Little dogs get in the way, and hey "yip" when they bark lol.

    Re: Big Dogs or Small Dogs

    I've had boxers for years. My boxer girl just passed this year and that is when we found our little stray - he is dachshund/terrier mix and I fell in love with him. We currently have one boxer and my little dachsie mix - they are both adorable but I am enjoying having my little lap dog again - it is sooo comforting to hold him while he snuggles in my arms at night.

    So, I guess I get the best of both worlds with having a boxer and a dachsie/mix

    I have a small dog who acts like he is a big dog. When we go to the dog park, I never have to worry about him. Usually small dogs run when big dogs come running up to see them, not him. He puffs out his chest and stands his ground just like the big dogs do.

    I think the reason small dogs are considered yappy and unfriendly to strangers is because their owners let them get away with it because they weigh less than 20lbs and are easy to pick up and restrain meaning, no training!

    Re: Big Dogs or Small Dogs

    i prefer medium-big rather then small.
    the smallest dog we owned in california was a female terrier/? sharpei mix...we're guessing with the sharpei part but she had the black spot on her tongue, the somewhat loose skin & curly tail so...



    then the next one was a female shepherd/rott mix...

    As many do, we have both...



    ...and if I had to choose, I'd take the big dog.

    ... not sure about the gas though.
