I believe I found my perfect dog breed in the beagle. They're such amazing animals! Small enough to handle but big enough not to be a lap dog. They like to have fun and exercise but also like their nap times and, of course, they LOVE food. We had him down in Sedona one time and took him to a restaurant with a dog-friendly patio. We ordered him beef tartar (it was just a pile of raw hamburger) and then cracked a raw egg on top of it. His eyes got as big around as saucers and he looked up at us almost like he couldn't believe it was for him. We told him he could have it and it was just pure pandemonium after that. They're probably still finding pieces of that hamburger around that table. Lol.
