What kind of dog do I want? If there are young children in your house, you may want a less aggressive dog. Terriers are energetic, but can be taught to calm down near small kids. Or do you want a show dog? Yorkshire terriers and siIky terriers are often used for show. No matter what show dog that you choose, make sure his/her life isn't just work and training.
