Hey Uncledan,
If you want a small cute and fluffy dog with a good temperament, consider a bichon frise! We had 2 of them for 14 years (now we have 1) and they are much better with kids than the westies (I saw you are getting married :love: ). Plus their fur is actually hair so no shedding. Our dogs, and other bichons we have known, were very very friendly with everyone - very nice dispositons!
