Lots of us are enchanted by the pint-sized charm of small dogs, but have you ever been caught off guard by their unexpected nibbles?

As a former vet tech, I’ve totally had my fair share of interactions with these pocket rockets of personality.

So, if you’ve ever felt like you need a secret decoder ring to understand why your mini-mutt occasionally thinks fingers are gourmet treats, stay tuned as I round up a list of small dogs that bite, together with a bunch of useful information on how you can handle it.

Let’s dive right in.

A good friend of mine had a Pomeranian named Eva. Never bit me, but would lick you to death if you let her.

I was violently attacked by a chihuahua, gauging by the sound and by the fact that the micro dog’s teeth got caught in my pant leg before reaching my flesh, and the dog was thus thrashing helplessly at my feet, while issuing death threats.

This is the only thing my dachshund is good for.

Awwwww .... love that.

But is Tyson still a 🐔 chicken?

Renamed?

[Veto!]

Great picture.

My cat is a terrorist too. A tri-colored Tabby, “very smart and very fierce” according to my vet. I adopted Daisy because she was the Alpha of the litter.

At seven years old, she still bites me at least three times a day when I don’t do exactly what she wants when she expects it. Machine Gun Daisy wold be a good name.

He's not that big, but he thinks he is.

[Jane Long]

He’s a little lap dog.

In his own mind :-)

[Political Junkie Too]

I didn't realize that they have variations based on the breed.

We have this one in our home.

[Jane Long]

LOL! Daisy AR.

[Mermaid Girl]

I love my Rottweilers, Shepherds, Dobermans. Just good, smart, balanced puppies. I’ve owned a Rottie (who was my heart) and a DobermanRottweiler mix who was the smartest, most urbane dog I ever owned. I swear, if Albert could have walked around the house with a martini and a smoking jacket, he would have.

The dog that left a permanent scar on my face and nearly blinded me when I was a toddler was a little sh*thead named Socratese. He was a tiny little Yorkshire Terrier with bows in his stupid silky hair.

Meanest little sh*t to ever cross my path.

[Jane Long]

I need one, for our breed!

Where do you buy these?

Thx

[Rurudyne]

Think of all the fights the dog has prevented by his ever presentness between the two of you!

[Political Junkie Too]

I don't know. Danbury Mint put out that plate at least 10 years ago. You might be able to find one on the resale markets. I don't know what breeds they did or if the artist produced them on other media.

[Political Junkie Too]

He's devious. He only does that to tell when I get out of bed so he can follow me into the kitchen.

My Wirehair Fox terriers did that to me, particularly the first one. A lot of mornings I’d wake up, and would be clinging to the edge of the bed to stay on. Little buggers could really lock their legs out, get all four paws in the center of your back, and hanging for dear life.🐶

[Political Junkie Too]

Yeah, on a king bed, too!
