Sweet little Belle.  I will tell you now that we are not small dog people...and these babies are small...both about 2 pounds each.  The fact that they are so small, though, makes them that much more helpless seeming.  They just need help with so much.  Our deck has two steps, and these poor pups can get down them, and up one, but the second is higher, and they get stuck halfway up to the door.  Someone has to help them come into the house.  The jump and hop around like little mechanical or wind up toys more than dogs.

Are we small dog people?  No.  However, we see now the appeal of the small lapdog.  They want to be snuggled up on a lap all the time.  They are tiny and feel safe when with someone.
