As Paris Hilton, Britney Spears, and others fall out of fashion, so does the trend of 'designer handbag dogs'. This brings up the question, what do you do with these annoying little furballs?

You put them to sleep and forget about them.
The dogs however, try to find them a good home.

A bar in Asbury Park has "Yappy Hour" every Thursday night & Sunday afternoon in the summer. Bring your dog to their patio bar & let them run around. Those goddamn spoiled "handbag dogs" were so out of control, I had to stop bringing my dog. They'd jump all over the other dogs, snap at people, and just generally cause mayhem wherever they went. And their owners thought it was all cute. Yeah, it's all cute until my Great Dane gets sick of their shenanigans and chomps one in half. However, it would then be MY fault, so I just stopped going.
So the bar is having "small dog only" night on Wed. Good--you and your living accessories can annoy the f*ck out of each other, leaving responsible dog owners alone.

I also propose a pet tax. The purchase of a dog that serves no real purpose , meaning it is not used for hunting, service or security, and all cats, ferrets, hamsters etc. be taxed at 50% of value at time of purchase.
Also the purchase of items at speciality stores/si[er markets also be subject a heavy tax with a stupidity surcharge added to things like dog sweaters and hats..
Americans spend about $45 billin a year on their pets

The problem with tiny little handbag dogs is the same problem with pit bulls--the dogs themselves are fine, but they tend to be owned by assholes, and assholes make lousy pet owners.

Why wouldpeople want their dogs (other than serivce dogs) in bars and restuarants with them? Do these people take their plate off the dinner table and go sit by their dog 's bowl and share a meal? WTF? Why would they want to impose their precious animals on others?
It is like people who let their dogs live in the house with them. Animals belong outside. People in third world countries might bring their small herd of goats in with them at night to protect them from predators but there is no reason for this here.
My experience with dog owners is those that think they are responsible are just as bad as those who are not. They are all one in the same. It is like the parent who thinks their precious snowflake does no wrong.
I keep hoping the county will ban dogs form the runnign/hking/biking trails because despite a requirement to do so many dog owners do not pick up after their stupid animals. No much hope though as the animal lobby is strong.

Boil them alive to get the fur off, then slow roast with a rosemary dry rub and a crabapple in their mouth for 4 hours at 250.

Gah, my spoiled brat 13-year-old niece just got one of those for that very reason. I fully expect it to be dumped at a shelter within six months. Too bad, really, since the cage would be better punishment for that fool of a girl and her parents.

I live in NYC and don't have a backyard. In the summer I can bring my dog (a 10 pound havanese) to a cafe after some time at the dog run and spend lunch with him. He's perfectly well behaved; I've trained him since he was a puppy to just sit under my chair while I have lunch. He's happy sniffing the other dogs as they come around and people love to pet him. There are restaurants (Barking Dog, The Yard, Mudspot, etc) that specialize in creating a dog-friendly atmosphere. There's only a few that don't allow dogs in NYC.
I just got a shelter chihuahua though, and have a feeling with his disposition he won't be joining us on our lunches unfortunately.

My grandma lives two miles down a country highway which itself is twenty miles from any kind of population density. A few months ago there was a Brown and Black male pomeranian running with her dogs. They were gonna sell it for 100 bucks at the farmers market, but it had a broken jaw, so they paid the vet to fix it up, and now my Grandma has a new dog.
He's almost full grown, and the sweetest little prince of a pup. He follows directions, lays back to be brushed, and he even loved being bathed.
Our theory is that some couple broke up and somebody said "I'll show that biatch and take her dog out to the woods".
Just a theory.
so my answer is, take them to a farm. No, really.

Agreed. If it isn't due to imitating a celebrity, it is because they saw a movie about dogs or because someone else in their life got one and they're jealous.
Unfortunately, once the novelty wears off, they're not always taken to a shelter where someone else can adopt them. Many families will just kick the dog outside after that point and it essentially rots in the back yard. Then you get all of the nasty behavioral issues that stem from the isolation, like barking and aggression towards people on the other side of the fence.

Mine is a little skittish around them because, when they go underneath her head, she can't see them. She's good with little dogs who are owned by people who don't treat them like people or accessories. My SIL has a Pomeranian whom my dog thinks is her puppy. A friend has a Bichon that she gallops around the backyard with. But another friend has 2 completely unruly, untrained, spoiled rotten Pugs that make her life miserable whenever they're around. And there are a couple of Pugs, Chihuahuas, and terrier mixes at Yappy Hour that are just utter terrors. I'm hard-pressed not to fling them into traffic whenever they're near.
