It's sad that so many people have such bad experiences with toy dogs.
Think about it logically, though... these are breeds bred TOTALLY for companionship. Why on earth would they be bred to be snippy?
A well bred, well trained toy dog is one of the most delightful personalities. They're so full of love and companionship with such dynamic personalities...
There were so many toy breeds I didn't care for at all until I met some WELL BRED dogs at shows. You'd be amazed the difference.
Unfortunately most people see the byb/pet store versions owned by people who view them as fashion accessories.

You can count on each of those breeds being snappy if they were produced by a byb.
I have seen some EXTREMELY aggressive family of 3 bichons, a JRT, and a chihuhua that attacked me when I was 9. All of them were products of BYBs.
On the other hand, get any of those breeds from a reputable breeder and they should be very stable temperamental wise. JRTs are just VERY high strung, they are terriers.

A family friend has 5 chihuahuas and one min pin. Those dogs are the sweetest little things. All the chihuahuas want to do is lay in your lap, lick your arm, and gaze into your eyes. The min pin will bring you all his toys pestering you to play with him over and over and over, lol. Of course min pins are terriers at heart.
