5 Small Dog Breeds That Always Stay Small No Matter Their Age

2. Yorkshire Terrier – This is one of my favorite furry creatures. They may look small, but they have an attitude that even we can’t match. My advice to you is don’t go by their size. They possess characteristics that most of the dogs will fail to have.

Yorkshire are 6 to 7 inches tall and do not weigh more than 7 pounds. If you are planning to own a small dog breed, simply grab this cuddly dog. They don’t really require regular exercises like other breeds.

All you need to do is take care of their fur. They need regular grooming. Your job will be to keep their coat shiny and silky.

Yorkshires do not demand space. They can accommodate anywhere. Be it a small apartment or a bungalow, they are happy just as long as you take care of them. They really prove to be the best pets for anyone.

  1. Agree. But don’t Pomsky (Pomeranian + Husky) could be much bigger. In fact, you can’t predict pomsky’s size

    1. That was a reply to Jake’s comment 🙂

  2. Great list! I love your first choice, I have a Papillion/Japanese chin mix and he will be my puppy no matter how old he gets! 🙂

  3. I’m not really used to dogs, not that I hate them but I never had one. But, ever since my boyfriend had one and my workplace has a Japanese Spitz mixed with Pomeranian. I’m starting to think about getting one. They’re so sweet and adorable even the big ones. Thank you for sharing this informative article, I have more ideas about dog breeds. 🙂

  4. Although I have big dogs – 2 German Shepherds and a Shep Collie mix, I love small breed dogs. They have the hearts of lions and fear nothing!

    And Bostons are my favorite! They are also known as the American Gentleman. I know the coolest Boston named Angus after Angus Young from AC/DC! He’s not scared one bit by my big dogs.

    Anyway Angus loves camping trips and Clair, his mom keeps him in her bag too when we visit curio shops on a trip. Of course it’s a big bag! But Angus is happy as a bug in a rug!

  6. Yorkshire terriers make amazing companions! I’ve had two for a little over ten years now, and they are, by far, the best dogs I have ever had and so easy to take care of. Thanks so much for the info about other small breeds!

  7. Crossbreeds of these tiny dog breeds are also a great choice, many shelters have a ton of chihuahua mixes available. They’re great to travel with!

  10. Hi,

    Actually when people with a family having some children decide to go on for a pet they always prefer small pets.
    Because they are Easy to handle, are safe, looks Cute and do not require much maintenance and care.

    In many cases people don’t adopt dogs because they require much larger space and needs daily Field travel. If you would buy a smaller breed of dog then it relieves much of your worries.

    You can go for Guinea pigs if you want small pet.

    With regards,
    Saurav

  11. My favorite small dog breed has to be the French Bulldog. They are so cute, and if you wear a beret and hold a baguette when you walk them in the street you look very sophisticated 😉

  12. Don’t forget about the Pomeranian too! Full grown they’re only about 8 to 11 inches tall and weigh between 3 to 7 pounds, now that’s a tiny dog!
