I'm with most others - dogs that tiny generally are neither smart nor pleasant to be around in my opinion.

That said, Missy Anne looks like she's got the most brains of the bunch.

:thumbsup: for adopting 🙂

:thumbsup: Missy Anne looks the worst out of the bunch though...just my opinion. Big dogs get a bad rap, i've seen plenty of huge animals including pitbulls get along with cats just fine. In some cases I've even seen the cat being aggressive and the bigger dog just minding his own business.
 
I'm going to go with Lorenzo.
My brother has one that looks almost exactly like that one.
It is the most family friendly dog I have ever seen.
It also plays with the cats outside.
It even sleeps with them.

I grew up with small dogs, they were wonderful for small children. I love small dogs and big dogs, however after we lost Peaches I decided to go back to a small dog. I am the one that gives them baths and takes them to the vet when they need to go. I would just simply prefer a small dog this time around.
 
I love how the same people will religiously defend pit bulls and other strong breeds, saying it is the owners fault, but yet say small dogs are "stupid" and "not pleasant to be around" because they are small....

We got a 6 week old beagle about 6 weeks ago and he has been a really good puppy so far and loves to play with the cat next door. It really depends on the cat...if it is used to dogs then you should have no problems. "Buster" is also already crate trained and sleeps is his kennel at night with minimal whining. We have a 13 year old Golden that is sadly approaching his last days and he has been a great family dog so we did a lot of research on it and beagles kept coming up. So far so good.

if you got a beagle that doesent bark non stop 24/7 you need to clone it

We have 2 rescue Beagles and the only time they bark is when we come in the house after being at work all day. Other than that they rarely bark.
 
cooper is adorable, poor thing has so many health problems though. that may be a concern.

i'd go for missy anne and keep her closely shaven (puppy cut!).

i love little dogs, they're great fun. malteses rock.

That is what we were going to get but the owner decided that she wanted to keep him.

That is too bad. If you get tired of that kind of treatment and since you like the little ones look here, all you could ever want in little dog is here.

That stinks, they ship them and you can pick them up at your nearest airport. I can't imagine how much that would cost though...

I think we are going to go with one of the ones listed here
 
If it were us we would probably go with Cooper since he likely will have the hardest time finding a home. As young as he is he will probably be fine once he has recovered from his pneumonia.
 
i like Linflas advice, but I'd probably go with the shi tzu. my girl has a male and he is a character. they are known for their personalities. he will be a bitch to train, but you will be rewarded. they do have some bad genetic traits though, so keep that in mind.
