[nagdu] Dog Breeds

As far as big and small goes, Lexia is rather small for a lab, but, with 
her, it is either one extreme or the other. For her, it's "let's see how 
much room I can take up if I stretch out" or "how small can I get if I curl 
up in a ball".  She has earned herself the two nicknames of Stretch and Pill 
Dog (after the Pill Bugs found in California that curl up in a ball.)

Hi Dar, Laveau is not your average 28 inch tall dog.  My husband's dog
is as tall as she is and has almost 30 lbs on her.  He is *huge* and
we have a hard time squeezing him in places.  However my husband is
6ft 9inches tall so he needs a biggish dog.  Laveau is very small and
can curl up into a tiny doughnut.  She fits anywhere.  She can fit
under chairs in cafes, and under theater seats.

As for my balance, yes!  I love *love* having a tall dog.  I want the
rest of my dogs to be tall like this!  It is great.
