The Miniature Pinscher is a great dog because it's compact (mine is 10 pounds) but has a HUGE personality. My little guy (Tekko) was adopted from a rescue shelter three years ago and he loves to run, play or just chill. Downside: they hate the Winter. I live in Canada and Tekko suffers through the cold months.
Pugs! We have a Pugalier (cross Pug/King Charles Cavalier) at present. Here are pics taken yesterday. His name is TAJ and he had his 7th Birthday last week.
