Bassetts are cute because they look like cartoons. None of the proportions are right.
Doxies I don't have a good experience with :~0 Yet...
But Scotties... I like. They aren't a good dog, they're a riot.
My brother had a dog that was ~mostly~ Scottie. The dog was a lunatic.
Lovable. But crazy.
I don't trust Doxies around kids, for the most part. They tend to get snippy (in my experience).
Scotties, schnauzers, etc - they are stubborn, but they adore their families. It's only strangers that'll get theie ankles nipped. :-)
Mutts are my all-time favorite. You can always find a good mutt.
