We would like to find a toy-size dog (around 9-15 pounds) for our family of seven. We have children from ages 2 1/2 to 14. The youngest children are 2 1/2 and then 6 and I haven’t seen them be rough with any animals. The six year old falls in love with every animal she sees. Family members are home most of the time so the dog would not typically be left alone except for weekend errands.
Here is what we are looking for:
**Toy size or very close to it.**
**Doesn’t shed or minimal shedding but is not hairless.**
**Hypoallergenic.**
**No doggy odor.**
**Good with children.**
**Doesn’t require frequent professional grooming (prefer less often every 6 weeks).**
**Easy to housebreak and train.**
Yes, that’s a tall order but I’m hoping there is a ‘perfect’ pet for us. I have done a lot of looking online and seem to only find conflicting information. I would be very thankful for any ‘wise’ recommendations you care to share.
Thanks,
Donna

What do you think the cutest dog breed is? But has to be toy/small! Thanks!

What Is The Calmest Breed Of Toy/small Dog?

Absolutely the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. This was the breed favored by the Merry Monarch. They are rare and have small litters so not only do they carry a large price tag, often breeders are very, very selective on who gets one of their pups.
After that would probably the Boston Terrier. The most un-terrier-like terrier. They are known as the little gentleman, and not just for their built in tux. Toy breeds are not generally known for calmness.

We are looking into finding a dog that is pretty small in size and wont shed too much. We understand that there are many dogs that require certian enviornments and stuff like that, we just want to start researching those that we can consider!

If so or not, why? In our area we see SO many toy breeds out of control and their owners act like it’s funny.
