Small or Big Dogs?

I'd love to have a big dog but I live in an apartment so all I've ever had were small dogs, which I also love, but they're not as fun to play with. If I were to get a big dog I'd probably go for Siberian Husky, I'm in love with them. I wish big dogs were easier to take care of. If they were I'd get one even though my house is not exactly good for them... I don't do it because I don't want a dog that ends up sad because he misses open spaces to run and play.
