I have owned all.different breeds of dogs however dashounds are my favorite. I currently have one and another small Chihuahua Rat Terrier mix that are best buddies. My pets are my children a little spoiled, maybe a lot but well behaved. They are both males and have a fine brother. All 3 get along great most of the time lol. Henry, Smokey and Fred are all 8 years old as I got them within months of each other. Since they all have different personalities I do my best to provide them with their own time and attention. We recently lost their older sister Daisy an American Bulldog which was extremely difficult but they are doing much better. Daisy was my only female and she was with me when I acquired these 3.
