I think it's almost time for another dog.

Reilly is still the greatest dog known to man, but he's currently doing whatever my mom tells him to do at her house. I didn't have time for him in PA, and now she spoils him. She even takes him to the office every day. That little man has it made.

no kidding! lucky mofo

As long as you are trying to stay mobile and flexible, as far as where you live and what you do, I would stick with a small dog. Once you start trying to move a big dog around you will run into more issues, whether it's boarding or finding a place to live (many leases rule out larger dogs). Obviously you have experience with small working dogs (rat terriers, jack russels, etc.) so you know the issues with making sure they are properly exercised and entertained. That can be a big problem for some. If you are looking for something more low key then get a small mutt like Spencer posted. Even jacked up on blow they will probably be less stress than a terrier.

Not a fucking chance. There aren't enough 2x4's in existence to get one of those trained properly.

LMMFAO!!!You speak the truth!!

beagles are good dogs too yale. If you wanted a bigger dog that stays under most apt and other rules.

If a beagle is still to big stick with the two best small breed dogs imho. rat terrier or dachshund.
