  1. Look up the different toy breeds and read up on them and that'll help you decide what type of dog is best for your lifestyle.
  2. good luck a dog that doesnt bark? that is going to be tough
  3. http://www.hasbro.com/furreal/ This site has absolutely everything you just described!!
  4. Dead puppies.
  5. Don't go by looks, go by compatibility. As for barking, this all depends on training and stimulation. There's the Shih Tzu, Lhasa Apso, Japanese Chin, Chihuahua, Cavalier Spaniel, Yorkshire Terrier, Beagle, Jack Russell Terrier, West Highland White Terrier, Boston Terrier, Toy Poodle, Miniature Poodle, Drever, Dachshund, Pekingese, Pomeranian, Staffordshire Bull Terrier, Scottish Terrier, Rat Terrier, Pug, Shiba Inu, Basenji, Cairn Terrier, French Bulldog, Italian Greyhound, Norfolk Terrier, Norwich Terrier, Welsh Corgi, Tibetan Spaniel, Chinese Crested Hairless, Bolognese, Maltese, Bichon Frise, Papillon, Shetland Sheepdog, Silky Terrier, Skye Terrier, Affenpinscher, Miniature Pincher and shelter mutts. Again, do your research; not all small breeds are for everyone. Despite their size, many require a lot of exercise, such as the Jack Russell Terrier. There is now a TON of homeless small dogs -- not all of them are lucky to find new homes and thus many are euthanized -- thanks to the backyard breeders and puppymillers making a quick buck out of them, and for the people who *gasp* are surprised that they require work and aren't fashion accessories. Check here for them: http://www.dogsindanger.com http://www.petfinder.org http://www.petharbor.com http://www.1-800-pet-rescue.com Do a Google on "-insert breed name here- club" (for example, Yorkshire Terrier Club of America/Canada/UK) for further breed info, breed rescue and RESPONSIBLE breeder referrals. If you're interested in adopting a dog but live too far away from it, there is often the option of having a dog transported to you/closer to you. Google "dog rescue transportation."

  7. A mini teacup bullmassarussell St. doododoodane. They are cool dogs.
  8. Here's a link to the AKC toy group! http://www.akc.org/breeds/toy_group.cfm Remember though that ALL dogs need training to not bark. ADD-- DARN YOU MEAGHAN! You beat me to the "list!" I have it alphabetically though!
  9. i have a male shih-tzu who is very calm he is now 9 years old and only like 30 pounds. Hes been calm all his life so i would say a shih-tzu
  10. border terrier they stay small and they don't cast
  11. It depends on your definition of little. If your comparing a Corgie to a great dame I would say it was little. All the toy breeds will stay small. I would also consider the terrier group and any miniatures. You can get a general idea about how big your dog will be but you never really know, there is a wide range even within breeds. Do some research about the breeds that you like, go the the AKC website and see what there are.
  12. Try a stuffed animal. They don't bark, they are very cute and you don't have to house train or feed them.
  13. whatever you decide, please rescue it! i have a poodle :) that's what i recommend for everyone :)
  14. Don't get chihuahua or yorkie, VERY yappy and loud. My granparents have a Toy Poodle and its playful, quiet, and looks like a little teddy bear!
  15. my 11 year old friend has a chihuahua that is only 2.9 pounds.How 'boput a chihuahua or yorke or maltese.
