Choosing a Small/Toy Dog for a Pet
Choosing whether to own a small dog or large dog can be an extremely hard choice because there are benefits of both, and bigger dogs are also wonderful pets and very loyal to their owners. However there are certain reasons to be influenced towards picking a small dog as a pet. If you live in a small house or apartment, a small dog will be much more suitable than a large one. Also if you are planning on taking your pet on outings or road trips with you, it would be much easier with a small dog. There are also benefits of owning a small dog that you probably would not have thought of, for instance they can actually be good little guard/watch dogs.
You might be surprised to know that some breeds of small dogs can be very protective watchers over their owner. At the same time, small dogs vary in their personalities, making some suitable for the task of watch dog, and some not suitable. If a watch dog is an important deciding factor for you, maybe choose a yorkshire terrier, chihuahua, or shihtzu.
Whilst some breeds of small dogs make good little watch dogs, they are still very small and fragile. Despite being called toy dogs, they are not toys and could be badly hurt by children that are not gentle with them. For the safety of your toy dog and your children, don't leave them alone together and be sure to teach your child the right way to treat any kind of animal. Smaller dogs are more susceptible to hurting themselves by falling down stairs or falling off beds, so please be very careful and watchful with them!
Caution should be shown with any pets around children, and if treated right small dogs can still make a wonderful, gentle, pet for a child. When choosing a small dog as your pet, be sure to do your research first, to find one that is perfect for you and your family. This is a very important step to avoid disappointment with your new pet, and the temptation to give him away. You want to choose the right dog that is compatible with your family and lifestyle so that you can enjoy your cuddly bundle for a life time. Any pet is a life time responsibility, and small dogs are no exception. At the same time, with the right knowledge and enthusiasm to let your small dog into your life, he will in return bring you a life time of happiness and loyalty.
Like humans, no two dogs are the same, and they also come in varying sizes, colours, and personalities. When making the decision to purchase a dog one of the biggest choices to be made is whether to own a big dog or a small dog. But it should also be taken into consideration that even though the different breeds of small dogs are similar in size, they can be vastly different in personalities, needs, and care required.

Small Dog Clothing-The Benefits And Reasons For Clothing Your Small Dog
Many people laugh at the idea of small dog clothing, such as petite chihuahua, tiny yorkie and little maltese being dressed with small dog clothes, after all, since your dog has a coat of fur, why would she need a dog coat? However, what most people don’t realize is that small breed dogs can be affected by cold weather, heat and rain just as easily as their humans.
Small Dog Clothing has benefits which many people don't realize, if you are not sure what they are then read below:
*Many tiny/toy dogs don't have adequate natural protection against nature's elements because unlike their wild counterparts, they are not used to the extremes of nature, they have been brought up with humans who shield them, it is a generally good thing but it also prevents pets from developing their natural abilities to deal with the sometimes cruel elements of the weather. Humans can and usually do substitute their shortcomings from nature with clothes, but pets don't have those luxuries, so we humans owe a responsibility to provide our beloved small dogs with dog apparel and whatever else they need to make their extra small lives more comfortable!
*Dog coats, dog jackets and dog outfits, which are available in many different fabrics, including waterproof, windproof and warm comfy linings, could be the perfect solution for a pets day out. Especially those tiny pups that are perpetually shivering and if you live in Northern Ontario, you know the long, cold winters we have..... these small dogs just don't have the stature or mass to keep the heat in their bodies!
*Another advantage being that for smaller dogs with various types of allergies, clothing can make skin less susceptible to external factors such as dust, dirt etc., which in some cases cause pets to lick/chew their skin, thereby aggravating an allergy or any injury, it can also prevent to a degree human allergies by preventing dead cells from skin falling on the floor and possibly triggering allergies.
*And last but not the least, let's face it, puppy clothing on your extra small dog just looks cool! It reflects your design choices and is a huge ego booster for the small/toy dog! Her clothing is fashionable and of course functional.... you are giving her a fun and comfortable feeling of security, which all our pets need and deserve!
