Min Pin Anyone?
Does anyone have one of these? We rescued a dog that we thought was a large Chi but turned out to be a Min Pin. We are crazy about him and so is everyone who meets him. In fact, we have had offers to buy him plus actual begging for him! His temperament is so sweet and friendly, he needs very little exercise...

What breed of dog for me? *Thanks for all the help, we have decided...
Well, this will be my first real inside dog. We have had several outside/farm dogs, but no housepets. I'm really unsure of what breed to get. I was thinking maybe a mini/toy aussie, but I'm not sure. Here is some more info: *The breed of dog must be good around horses. Since I own, ride, and...

Will he ever look like the Little Ceasar Dog?
Max is a 4 month old West HIghland White Terrier. His fur is kind of...sparse. I know that the Westie "look" is archived through grooming, but so far Max doesn't have much to work with. Here is his pic. Note the devil horns.
