That's because Papillons rock and do not have small dog minds. Look at all the
service dog agencies (the well established ones)... What breed do they use when
a small dog is needed? Papillons. I think they are very similar to GSD in their
intelligence for sure. They are on the top 10 most trainable and top 10 most
intelligent breed lists. They are also similar to GSD in their bonding and
loyalty as well as attention to owner. They never miss anything!

I can share a good story about little dogs
I, for some reason, when competing in either rally or traditional obedience,
get beat by Papillons every time we seem to have one in our class! They are
awesome in agility too. It seems owners of that breed expect to have smart
little dogs and understand that 5 pounds or 500, it's a dog and needs
training!
Wonder where the disconnect with the other breeds and their owners
happened....

Little dogs, trained right (by somebody who had a well behaved GSD? <G>) can
be just as “big dog.” The problem is that the owners baby, spoil, think
they are cute when they mouth off. Obedience trials are full of well
behaved little dogs. The streets are full of the spoiled bratty ones.

Tedi told me yesterday when she walks with Kierk in the mornings, (she does
5 to 8 miles every other day), he is often off lead and all the little
"kibble dogs" are on leads pulling and barking at Kierk. Kierk just
ignores them and walks on by.
I don't get what people like about those tiny animals, but there are a lot
of them. Maybe they keep the dust off the floors.

This reminds me of an incident when we lived in VA before. The neighbors
had a GSD and one day he was standing in their driveway and there was a
little white dog (probably a Bichon or something on that order) and it was
barking furiously at the GSD. Suddenly it turned around and ran up the
street just as fast as its little legs could carry it. The GSD didn't do
anything.
