I love dogs and have owned several guard dogs. Until years ago, one of my girlfriend introduced me to a toy dog breed and now I owned an imperial shih tzu for 2 years I loved dearly called Mouchi.

A few months back, I bought a Yorkie (yorkshire terrier) named Tasya which are very much terrier at heart. She was very active and naughty. Mouchi hates her. Tasya likes to charge Mouchi's ass like a bull for the fun of it, and at one time she was so naughtly excited chasing Mouchi's ass around the house, she fell down from the second story and to my dismay Tasya died. Mouchi seemed relieved though (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) and don't have to protect her ass from Tasya anymore.

I wanted to get another toy dog, especially a miniature schnauzer, a westie (west higland terrier) a pug or at the very least another shih tzu. It seemed Mouchi is not very sociable to other dogs and I'd like to have a dog who at least doesn't frustate her as Tasya did. What breed do you suggest I should get which may have compatible temperament as Mouchi's playmate?

Aww, those are cute dogs!

I'd say visit an animal shelter to pick out a new pet, but it sounds like you've made up your mind. *shrug* At least in the US, 25% of animals in the shelter at any given time are purebreds, so if you get to know the staff and let them know your needs a lot of time they'll call you when an animal comes in that they think would fit your needs. And if you're planning on breeding them shelters are probably not your best option as the animals are usually spayed/neutered before they're adopted out.

I'm a cat person, I kind of have to be, and that's how I've always found my little fuzzbutts. All mine have been shelter rescues or adoptions from the vet, people would just abandon their animals at the vet clinic (horribly cruel, I know!) and so the vet would adopt them out after a time.
