I lost my sweet pup of 12 yrs ago couple weeks ago. He was 19 pounds and some mystery mix, hound/papillon/sheltie. Very smart, a guardian, intuitive, playful and extremely fast in his early years. I loved having such a “healer” dog who I could also do huge hikes with.
The trickier aspects were he was hard to train (too smart!), a big hunter (a few dead animals we had to deal with) and when younger was a bit yappy. Hated cats and not great with small children.
I’ve been considering adopting another and this cutie just popped up who has very similar face and personality to my boy, but he’s tiny 8 pounds. Terrier papillon mix I think.
I’ve yet to go meet him but interested to hear if people think he’d be a fit for me exercise/personality wise. Up and down sides of a tiny pup?
