    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.

Get More Cake-Decorating Ideas

Fact: Everything's cuter when it's mini. So we raided the dollhouse and train set (and some of our favorite shops and sources) to turn tiny treasures into amazing details that will put huge smiles on the faces of your guests. Look to sites that carry miniatures (typically for furnishing dollhouses) to personalize your day in an unexpected way. 

Mini Cake Décor

Want a cool and different cake without things getting costly—and difficult? Here we used tacky glue and six paper-flower kits to transform this dessert from plain to really pretty—for only about $45. 

The Details: Paper flower kit, $7.25 each, TheMiniatureGarden.Etsy.com.
