Love to stay by your side. They are also great with other dogs and children. And an added benefit is the dog is very cute  Good luck! | |

Seems perfect for us and maybe it can help me shipping packages at night. Or at least keep me company. LOL | |

I could not get a "manlier" dog but would not want to put a dog through that. Our house and yard is tiny and I don't want to have to put a big dog through not having enough space to run around and stuff.  | |

Actually their hair hardly sheds from what I have been reading. And the hair has a coating on it that helps it to repel dirt so I won't have to wax it as much. LOL | |
