I'd actually go for a Pomeranian (if you don't mind the fur). I've live with them for over a decade. Very sweet dogs. I also know a very sweet mid-sized poodle. I wouldn't get a Shih-tzu if you have kids. I've known 3 (not my dogs) and all three were bullies. They are, not necessarily mean, but very demanding and bossy. You can't get anywhere with one unless it knows absolutely that you are the alpha dog. A woman I work with had to get rid of hers because it terrorized her daughter. It unintentionally bit her daughter, and afterward her daughter wouldn't stand up to the dog and assert her place in the pecking order. My friend told me that her vet had called the dog a "Chinese Terrorists."
