    9 Dog Breeds That Look Like Puppies Even When They're Fully Grown

    9 Dog Breeds That Look Like Puppies Even When They're Fully Grown

    Puppies are irresistible. We fall in love with their big eyes, little button noses, fluffy tails, and clumsy paws. And yet, like any pet, puppies grow up and turn into dogs. Some breeds, like the Old English Sheepdog or Great Dane, will grow to become larger in size than most people. But not all dogs are destined to become giants. There are some breeds that stay small in size even when they're fully grown. You may want a forever puppy if you are used to smaller animals. Maybe you have a small apartment or just want a canine companion that you can easily carry along with you anywhere you go. Small dogs are also great for families with young children or those of senior age who are best matched with a breed they can physically handle. Fortunately, some specialty dog breeds are mixed to look like puppies throughout their entire lives—and they are sure to melt your heart the second you lay your eyes on them.

Here's another dish that's pretty easy to throw together. We use orecchiette here, but you can use any short pasta that will help you achieve those perfect forkfuls of pasta, meat, and veg.

For this dish, we suggest campanelle, which is a short "bell-like" pasta that is perfectly shaped to capture a thick meat sauce in every bite. You're welcome!

With cherry tomatoes, Japanese eggplant rounds, and Kalamata olives, this dish becomes a colorful feast. We used calamarata, a little ring-shaped pasta, but you can use any kind of short tubular pasta, like mezzi rigatoni, or pennoni, as well.

Serve something spicy in 20 minutes! Of course, you can always opt for a milder dish by adjusting the amount of chiles cooked.

This easy dinner is fun for the whole family: Older kids can help cut off the broccoli florets while the little ones whisk together the sauce. And since it requires only a pot and a small bowl, adults will love the lack of cleanup.

Is there any sauce more decadent than a creamy alfredo? We doubt it. This is perfect way to dress up leftover mac and cheese.
