We had a little short-haired girl many years ago. What a sweet dog.
Just naturally well-behaved. Got along equally with humans and other
animals. She did get cold sometimes, and she didn't like being outdoors
in winter for very long. Sometimes in the summer she would find a mouse
nest in the grass and bring us one of the babies (gross). We were told
by the original owner that was a character of the breed.

You'll probably enjoy your little dog as much as our family did.
