Many older people who are looking for a dog breed want smaller, but very affectionate dogs. We have selected below the best dog breeds that are all-around friendly and loving, and come in a small size (typically less than 18-20 pounds).
My name is Dr. Winnie. I earned a Masters of Science in Biology from St Georges University and graduated from the University of Pretoria's Veterinary School.
I have been an animal lover and owners all my life having owned a Rottweiler named Duke, a Pekingese named Athena and now a Bull Mastiff named George, also known as big G! I'm also an amateur equestrian and love working with horses.
I'm a full-time Veterinarian in South Africa specializing in internal medicine for large breed dogs. I enjoy spending time with my husband, 2 kids and Big G in my free time.
