Dogs are humans’ loyal companions, so what are the small and cute dog breeds? What types of small dogs are suitable for home ownership? Let’s take a look below.
Small and cute dog breeds include Bichon Frize, Maltese, Pekingese, Shih Tzu, Chihuahua, etc. They are all relatively small dogs with very cute looks.
1. The Bichon Frize
was originally called the Papillon Frize, and later shortened to the Bichon Frize. Suspected to be a descendant of the Babbitt and the Water Spaniel. It is a petite, strong white powder-puff-shaped dog with a cheerful character, which can be seen from its feather-like tail rolled cheerfully behind its back and curious eyes. It is a very suitable family pet dog.
2. Maltese dog
The Maltese dog is a typical toy dog, especially with its long white hair, which makes the dog look and feel very noble and elegant. Maltese dogs are always friendly and get along well with other pets. But this kind of dog always needs to be close to humans, so once you choose one, you need to be prepared to spend time with it.
3. Pekingese
Anyone who knows the Pekingese knows that it has another name, pug, which is a native dog breed in China. The Pekingese does not eat much and is relatively easy to feed. It is cute and protective, and plays well with children. Pekingese dogs don’t shed often, but they need to be groomed at least once a month. They may take longer to train, but are easy to care for and make great playmates.
4. Shih Tzu
The appearance of the Shih Tzu is just like its name. It is very outstanding. It is a very ancient ornamental dog with a loyal, friendly and energetic personality, but it is difficult to train. Therefore, if you feed a Shih Tzu, you must master some training skills to make the dog obedient.
5. Chihuahua
Chihuahuas look relatively short and lean, and their hair is not as long as that of Shih Tzu or Maltese dogs, so it takes a lot less care to take care of them. Moreover, dogs have very flexible minds and are good at thinking. As long as they are well trained, they can learn even very complicated things.
