I don’t know how much flack I’ll get from this post, but I really do feel like small breeds like chihuahuas and pugs are very overrated as pets and I’ve never really found them cute at all. Give me a Lab or a German Shepherd any day. I also have an affinity for super huge dogs like St. Bernards and Great Danes. You show me gif of a pug being derpy, I couldn’t care less. But if I see a big ol’ Great Dane being dumb and thinking he’s a lapdog, and my heart just can’t take it.
Edit: okay so it seems this isn’t really an unpopular opinion lol. For context I grew up with a lot of people who owned small dogs and I still know a lot of people who prefer them over big dogs so maybe it just seems like I’m in the minority in my day to day life.

Same, dont know why people are scared of my rottie
I’ve never wanted a small dog, but the Frenchies my parents own are pretty cute. Once I’m an adult and am able to afford to live on my own and sustain a pet, I’m planning on getting a Dalmador because large dogs are better in my opinion.
I’ve had many dogs throughout my life and none of them have been small. However, my grandmother recently acquired these chihuahua’s and they get on my nerves. They hover in a swarm and are always stand offish. I think if being suffocated by a dog is how it ends then I’m ready. 🤷🏼♂️
I agree with ya, and my dad too hehe he thinks chihuahuas are demonic creatures, his favorite breeds are pointers and setters (he loves hunting) and just big breeds in general.
All dogs backs should at least come level with your knee, anything smaller is a rat.
