    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.

Clementines aren't just for peeling and eating! We've got a dozen recipes, from appetizers to salads to desserts, that give the sweet, seedless citrus the attention it deserves.

Clementine Basics

In Season: The most well-known member of the mandarin family, clementines are at their peak from November through April.

What to Look For: Choose clementines that are firm or only slightly soft and feel heavy for their size. Steer clear of any that have puffy or wrinkled skin, which indicates that they're overripe.

How to Store: Clementines will keep at room temperature for up to one week or in the crisper drawer of the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
