Small dogs are a pain

[The Summer of Muskrat XVII]

Me:Gizmo don’t chew on the kitty

Giz: *stares at me blankly, starts chewing on the kitty again*

Me: I said DON’T chew on the kitty

Giz: *stares blankly at me, starts chewing on the kitty again*

🤦🏻‍♂️

[Hypnosis]

My cousin had a chihuahua who constantly barked and chased me around a lot when I was 10, and even got into my house due to how quick he was.  The only way to get the dog away from me was making him fetch a rock.

Quite a scary experience.

As a groomer who works in a Dog Daycare. I can say, you're not all together wrong.

[KAMALARAMBO: BOOMSHAKALAKA!!!]

Yeah, but I kind of love them.

My old Pom/chihuahua mix made it to around 20 and was a complete asshole but that’s part of what made us so close together.

But yeah, big dogs are chiller.

[J. Hova]

Little dogs are the worst and are nothing but large rats.

I know I'm biased since my last dog was half chow and half lab, but he was the greatest dog who ever lived. If the dog doesn't have a bit of a poof to it and isn't at least half up your shin, then the dog is closer to a rodent than a companion.

My best friend has had 3 'vicious' dog breeds while his now wife has had 2 chihuahuas. Guess which ones have bitten me? I'll give you a hint, it isn't the vicious breeds.

[Burst]

We've got extended family that's got a pit bull and he's the biggest, sweetest, ridiculously jacked idiot. He's like Okuyasu as a musclehead pooch. Sweet, well-meaning, but completely oblivious to his true power. But yeah, for the most part, I agree with the prevailing sympy in this thread re: true small dogs, and I'd even argue they're closer to the stereotype of rodents than to actual pet rodents.

Small dogs have less physical potential to do harm, so many owners unknowingly cultivate their mental potential to do harm. This is not meant as an accusation, but I've met enough sweet chihuahuas. Our family dog is a street dog very likely with lang-haired Chihuahua in it (although considerably taller). Very loving companion.

I have a Jack Russell. He's got so much energy, but I love him to bits.

He also had a stint of bringing classic literature to life on a PBS show in the '90s.

I've always had small dogs.

Maggot Ass is barely 4lbs. But besides barking for a few times when someone comes into the house or drives up in the yard she is pretty chill.

But she rather spend 12 hours a day laying in one of the chairs napping and hoping someone drops a crumb she can snatch.

But get her outside and she becomes vicious,as long as she is way way way far away from whatever she is barking at.

Maggie sees a boat on the lake far away,she is gonna bark at it. She sees geese or ducks on the lake. She will bark at them. But that same goose or duck comes near the back porch Maggie is running to hide behind me or in my lap.

Knew plenty of people with little dogs that never shut up and bite ya. Maggot Ass isn't one of those.

Sounds like me talking to Maggot Ass

Gallos-Maggie DO NOT bark that is just the mail lady dropping off mail.

Maggot Ass runs off barking,jumps on bench by front window barking as mail lady drives off.

Walks back to my chair wagging tail like See I just ran off that person.

Or I am cooking and don't want her under foot.

Gallos-Maggie DO NOT come into the kitchen! See that board"points at board she is right by"don't go past it." Turn my head to look at stove. Turn head back she is right behind me jumping up wanting whatever I am cooking.

Yea she is an asshole. One of the reasons her full name is Maggot Ass. But she is chill 90% of the day.

I thing we all know the real reason Paris Hilton has a new bag all the time.

There is a clear correlation between the fact that I did own a dachshund (who was a huge pain in the ass) for 15 years and my absolute refusal to ever own another dog again.

Are you trying to say your dog is Wishbone?

[Push R Truth]

Every time I see a chihuahua I think about a wolf and say, "Dear lord, what have we done"

[Loser troll. Please ban me]

Before he passed my Chihuahua Max was the sweetest/most chill dog you ever met. His tongue hung out due to having no teeth so he had a constant derp face, and would let anyone hold him without much care.

Fly high little buddy.

Ok, is NO ONE going to comment on the fact that Ultimo Gallos has a dog named Maggot Ass?!

My parents friends have two little Shiu tzu dogs. Both are over ten years old. When we dog sit them, they will sometimes look out the window. I swear that at times I think they see something (like an animal) that’s FAR in the distance that they don’t like and they will bark at it thinking the certain thing will hear them (even in the middle of the night.) When one barks, the other one barks. Also if they see an animal on TV (even a caticure (sp?) like the Charmin Bears), they will think it’s real and start growling and barking. One of them saw me play Donkey Kong Country (a game that is over 25 years old), and they griwled especially when the Gorilla made sounds. Also, if they hear a dog on the computer, same thing.

One of them is a female and the other is male. They are not the same blood siblings if you know what I mean. The female is a diva but a good dog while the male has issues due to his previous owner (he doesn’t like anyone petting him except the female owner. That is the only one that he truly loves.)

There's Maggot Ass in her black hoodie with silver foil skulls on her favorite blanket.

All my dogs have had odd names. Had Duchess Diamond Hot Sauce(called her Duchess),Peaches Ice Cream(called her Peaches) and now Maggot Ass(Maggie)

Plus having an odd namees makes it easier to register them. Maggot Ass is her name but most of the time she get's called Maggie.

And I got Maggot Ass from my paternal grandfather. He passed when I was 6 at the oldest. I had a slightly older cousin that had to be ADD but this was mid 70s so yea,he could never sit still. Grandpa would look at him squirm and moving "Whats the matter kid you got maggots in your ass? Gotta Maggot Ass."

Maggot Ass became what we called that cousin for years.
