Small Dog Types - Part 2
The second part of this article on small dog breeds covers small dogs in the herding, toy, terrier, and non-sporting groups.
Terrier Dogs
Terriers were bred for the hunt - rabbits, foxes, rats, and even badgers, otters, and river rats. Rather than the hunters of old, most terriers these days are bought as pets. And with their loyal and affectionate temperament, they do make great pets. However, they are dogs with strong personalities, and they need similarly strong and determined owners. This is just as true for the small, toy terriers - their personalities are just the same as their larger terrier cousins. Terriers also have an abundance of energy, so you'll need to exercise them a fair bit. Their coats are wiry, and special grooming needs in order to maintain that characteristic wiriness}.
There are many small breeds in the terrier grouping. They are: the Irish Terrier, Border Terrier, Australian Terrier, West Highland White Terrier, Manchester Terrier, Dandie Dinmont Terrier, Kerry Blue Terrier, Norwich Terrier and Norfolk Terrier, Cairn Terrier, Welsh Terrier, Smooth Fox Terrier, Bedlington Terrier dog breed, Sealyham Terrier, and Scottish Terrier.
Toy Dogs
Toy dogs are a very recognizable small dog type, due to their popularity with both people and celebrities. Because many toy dogs are large breeds bred down to size, you'll find toy breeds in many of the other groups as well.
Toy dogs are friendly, though they can be angry and fierce as well. But they are great lap dogs, and often a cherished member of the family. Toy dogs include: the Papillon, Shih Tzu, Miniature Poodle, Yorkshire Terrier, Chihuahua, and the Pomeranian dog breed.
Non-Sporting Dogs
Non-sporting dogs is a general term for those breeds the American Kennel Club recognizes, that don't fit into any of the other groups. They are different in terms of their coat, temperament, color, ancestry, and size. Small breed dogs in the non-sporting group are: the bichon frise, Boston Terrier, Tibetan Spaniel, Tibetan Terrier, French Bulldog, Schipperke, and the Lhasa Apso.
Herding Dogs
Herding dogs are a relatively new classification in the AKC. The breeds in this group were part of the working group. And, a lot of breed registrars across the globe they still are a sub-catgory of the working group. The dogs registered by the AKC are usually kept as pets, although herding (and working) dogs are still used throughout the world on cattle stations and farms because of their unique abilities to herd livestock. They are able to be trained to respond to whistles and commands, and are very good at their job. In families as pets, herding dogs will often try and good naturedly herd their human family, especially the kids.
Small dog breeds in the herding group are the Border Collie, Pembroke Welsh Corgi, Cardigan Welsh Corgi, and the Shetland Sheepdog.
Miscellaneous Dogs
The miscellaneous category covers breeds not fully recognized by he AKC. There are no small dogs here.
Special needs, specialized design (jsonline)
Deborah and David Legg could see the day when they and their daughter,
Michele, would be in a better place.
After 27 years in their Sussex ranch home, they were eager to move into a much
larger house wholly designed around Michele’s special needs. They had
carefully planned it, using copious notes and experiences garnered from their
daughter’s 28 years of life.
The home’s wide hallways and large rooms would accommodate her
wheelchair. Exterior doors were flush with the grade. The garage was sized for
a van with a wheelchair lift.
“We made the house larger so that Michele’s wheelchair could go
around the kitchen table, go around the snack bar, go into the family
room,” Deborah Legg said. “It was designed where she could be with
us in every room.”
The master suite had two bedrooms separated by a sliding door. A specialized
bathroom featured a large roll-in shower with mounted and handheld shower
heads, plus a customized toilet area. A lift mechanism was planned for
Michele’s bedroom to help move her.
Michele had Rett syndrome, a nervous system disorder that struck before she
was 2 years old. She couldn’t walk or talk, and required constant care.
