Well! This is an exciting development. Our lodger is considering getting a puppy. I don't think he has any breeds in particular in mind - he has always gravitated towards 'cool' looking dogs, like Ridgebacks and Tervurens. However, his main need is that it would have to be an office dog (I am NOT raising another puppy any time soon!!

) So, something small that he could take back and forth every day, keep with him easily, and not intrude on work too badly (I'm thinking about Breeze and his telescopic neck in an office

)
I suggested chihuahua and he's actually quite smitten with them I think

He's not after status, he enjoys training with Breeze and Scout, and would really enjoy having an animal with him all the time. He also enjoys taking Scout for a long walk from our house down to the beach. Clare has always said that Ted goes on surprisingly long walks with her. I think chihuahua fits in with all his needs quite well.
The one thing I'm concerned about is, say, if we all went out together for a dog walk, would that EVER be practical. Breeze flying along could quite easily kill a chihuahua I would think. And Scout, when she plays, plays like a terrier. In other words, ROUGH! Do you think this could ever work out? Or is it just too risky? Or is it manageable?
Or are there any other breeds that fit the bill better?
