Shih-tzu or Lhasa apso?  

personally... i'd prefer something with less hair. But If I really had no choice... then it'd be a shih tzu.

shih tzu's are fun to be around with, they're kinda needy when it comes to attention and adda has 1 and so does my bassist's girl so I'm always in close contact with these dogs.

i had a shih-tzu dog, less than a year of age, and a princess type. They're both lovely i think. i like hairy dogs. i also had a japanese spitz. most of my dogs are small type and hairy. i love watching them running around and playing because they're so hyper and seems like never get tired.
