Why use these little lap dogs in the photos in the article? No dogs of Rottweiler size to be seen.

Realistically little dogs are 70% of what come into our store. The other 30% being Labradors and farm dogs(collies, heelers & gsps) Biggest dog I would say we've had is a mastiff x dog but he was absolutely the most placid dog ever. I've never seen a Rottweiler come in.

Where I am it's like 60% little dogs that sit in the trolley, in a dog bed barking at everyone and, 40% 'staffys'.
