a somewhat random question for you, o flist

[mimesere]

one of the things that is, apparently, in discussion for a wedding gift from the boything's parents is a puppy*. They breed black labs, but we don't have room for one of those (which is sad, because they're beautiful and awesome), so we were thinking of getting a small dog (which would, essentially, be my puppy).

We've ruled out pugs because of the health problems, but otherwise, we are open to suggestions. So far, the front runners are a corgi or a papillon. Any recommendations for a relatively mellow, preferably non-yappy small dog?

I suspect I already know what norabombay's suggestion would be :)



*the last dog I had was a puppy from the time I got her until my mom gave her away 10 years later. all dogs == puppies. especially if they are tiny.

I actually cannot think of any small dog breed that isn't yappy! I'm having suggestion fail. *g*
