In my experience, when you come upon two dogs, one large and one small, keep an eye on the little dog because it is the one most likely to bite. Even when they are both friendly, the little dog will be the ‘ruler of the roost.’ My shih tzu is Queen and the Whippet/hound mix obeys.

Having had one for several years until she left us for another world, I certainly agree with the “small dog” comments…

I knew a chihuahua once, who was so vicious that it terrorized the Saint Bernard who lived next door to it.
