My Patti is going to be 20 on Jan. 3rd2024. Weighs 6lbs. 4oz. She has Congestive Heart Failure for 9 years now. Her medicine ( 2xday ) comes from Texas She is with me every day.
Still eats good , goes to door when she wants to go out and if on the floor barks for me to pick her up.Loves to ride in car.
They do:)
I’m equally surprised that I never see pomeranian, pompoms on any lists. Weve had 2 and have litter sisters now. Poppy and Pixl are SO entertaining, never chewed on anything they weren’t supposed to. They make us laugh and love to cuddle❤️
I had a chihuahua, and a year ago I lost her, and know I’m ready to get another. Can anyone help me and lead me in the right direction.
Thank you so much 💓
My little Kukui was 15 when she passed. I now have a another little girl, Kloee. She is a rescue dog. I just kept looking online and one day there she was!
I rescued a rat terrier. He is 14yrs old. I read that they can live up to 18 years. He is still a healthy happy dog. He runs and plays with his cat brother…
The Top 5 Recommended really doesn’t mean much…. Cause as usual it’s just a bunch of yahoo’s giving there opinion NOT based on facts! Just as a few of you have mentioned already. I can say my sister raised over 10 Chihuahuas and not a one of them lived passed 12 yrs old. I can also say that Toy Fox Terriers Are NEVER mentioned in any small breed dog breed mentions on any sights and they are beyond awesome personality, smarts, fun, entertaining and so much more! My TFT lived just shy of her 18th Birthday and her Grandfather lived until he was 18(info from breeder) This breed of dog is only about 6-8 pounds! So just a heads up there are a lot more dogs breeds out there than just the 5 (they are choosing) so DONT narrow your choices to just them, there are others! “EXPERTS” Should NEVER Cut Off breeds of dogs for a stupid attention getting article that doesn’t give you the facts about all dogs. Especially when there are factually ones that live longer and that’s what the article is all about!! For some reason all these dog “EXPERTS” ARE ALWAYS TRYING TO PUSH THESE SAME 5 BREEDS IN EVERY AND ALL MANNER POSSIBLE!! Every article will push these same breeds every time!!

In a different article I read that Chihuahuas did not live very long! I was surprised because I also thought the small dogs lived a long time!

I need a small dog for companionship, my children are all grown up
Coton de Tulear. Mine is 16 the best companion ever!
Yorkshire Terrier. Mine was 15 when she passed. A lot of my friends have had them and they lived long lives.
If dogs lived as long as they were loved they’d live forever❤️
You didn’t mention Lhasa Apsos. They have an unusually HEALTHY long life, average 15+ years. My beautiful Coco is 15 and still extremely healthy.

Shiba Inus have the greatest longevity of all dog breeds
I rescued a rat terrier. He is 14yrs old. I read that they can live up to 18 years. He is still a healthy happy dog. He runs and plays with his cat brother…
My last Jack Russell lived to age 17. He was still very active until he died in my arms.
Shih tzu ..we had one named dude. He lived 22 years❤️

My Chihuahua who’s name was Sir Beanie Sox lived to be 22 years old. He was the best dog I ever had.
I can’t believe you my buddy William’s breed, the noble Lshas of Tibet, my guy is 16 nearing 17
My Chihuahua is 21 this April. He is deaf and blind but loves me to death and I love him to death! Can’t imagine life without him
I just lost my oldest and she was a pitbull! Her name was TayTay and she was closer to 17yrs old.
My toy poodle (Tia) pure bred died a few days ago she was 13. I am heart broken
