I want a dog!
I don't know what kind yet (small lap dog that preferably has hair instead of fur). Any suggestions?
Here are some of my top picks based on cute encounters:
The Maltese
We owned a Maltese for years. Her name was Spooky because we got her on Halloween and she was white as a ghost. That dog barked at everyone but I loved her so much. She followed my mom around everywhere and slept at her feet. Spooky loved my mom best because mom fed her. Mom also was in the house the most out of all of us so Spooky never barked at her.
The Pomeranian

A friend on a softball team owned a Pomeranian. It was so little and cute and even if it was biting hard I barely felt anything!
The Shih Tzu

A friend from school had a Shih Tzu and I always thought as a puppy it looks like a mop-head running around on the floor.
The West Highland Terrier (Westie)

I don't know why I've always been drawn to Westies. My aunt had a Scottie and I like how Westies are basically white versions of Scotties.
The Yorkshire Terrier

Again, I don't have many experiences with them but I have heard good things and think they are adorable.
The Scottish Terrier

Like I said earlier, my aunt had a Scottie and I always think of Lady and the Tramp when I see one. They seem so wise!
