I got my little peke focci about a year ago, Ive never owned a small dog before.But as many people have stated, pekes are not ur usual little dog! She is a big dog in a little package thats for sure!!Focci has a funny personality, which is hard not 2 laugh at. One crazy thing is that she RARELY ever barks or makes any sound. Shes very playful, but can also b very mellow and relaxed. She is super smart and is eager 2 learn commands, she is always happy 2 see me ;)
