I don’t know why people seem to think small dog = easier. Small dog breeds like terriers are typically highly energetic, neurotic, and aggressive. They’re the farthest thing from low-maintenance.

Sure, when big dogs are aggressive it’s a much bigger problem than when small dogs are aggressive. But it’s uncommon for big dogs to be aggressive in the first place (and I’m not talking about bully breeds, I’m talking about bigger dogs in general).

I'm not saying they are the authority, but the two lists look pretty similar and the breeds pretty big.
