What kind of dog should I get?

My parents are divorced and i stay with my dad alot so... he said i can get any dog i want!!! So what kind of dog would be good , here is kind of an idea of what id like so if you can help pick one that has these characteristics that would be greart!!

- Does not shed too much
-very very small
-inside dog
-not a skiinny dog, i want a fatish one
-one with ind of long hair but not too think
-one that doesn't get gross eyes, like some poodles eyes have like black under their eyes, i dont like that
-loveable and smart

Now i was kind of thinking a long haired teacup chihuahua, but it seems like everyone has them so i kind of wanted one thats different and freakin adorable... so please help!!
Answers:
chihuahuas are a good choice but you can get long haired chihuahuas! its up to you!
Shih tzu
Bull Terrier (they have miniatures)
Boston Terriers
There are all kinds at the shelter just waiting for people like you to adopt them
Go to the AKC website and look at the different breeds. What it looks like is just one of the things you should be considering. Temperament, and how it will fit into the daily lifestyle that you live is very important.

Chihuahuas (Long haired) also get the tear staining that you are talking about.So do Bishons,shih tzue%26#039;s,poodles,yorkies,peeks,a... all of the stupid "Doodle" mixes.Pretty much any long haired dog except a pom and a doxie. No dog should be totaly In side. It will need to go out side to pee and poop.Go to the pound and get a small dog that is short haired.(No grooming bills and matted hair)
what about a pug or what my cousin got was a cross between a pomarainan and a poodle i believe, and he doesnt shed, but i forgot the breed name
Please don't get a dog. Dogs need a lot of love and attention and you sound like you need more attention than any breed of dog.
Again, please don't get a dog.
Shih tzu. I have a shih tzu and they are the best. It is a small dog, it doesn't shed at all, you can do anything with it- you can sit and cuddle with it or you can play a lot with it. And it is usually a fattish dog unless you shave it. It is really funny when you shave all its fur off except his head and his tail.
Looks of a dog are the least important part of finding a dog find a dog that will fit into your lifestyle and has the right temperment. Do you buy a car because it is your favourite color?
I agree with Andrea Z. You sound like you want a plaything and/or something to show off to your friends. It also sounds like you want attention. Dogs are not accessories, nor are they a replacement for a relationship with your parents.
Get a Shih Tzu. I love my little dog. They are very low maintenance and very lovable. They do have to be groomed though so be prepared for that. I've always been a big dog person and I can't believe how much this little one means to me. She love us all unconditionally. Good luck!
you sud get a pug
