December 29, 2006: World's smallest dog



Neatorama finds this item and I nick it just in time for a Friday image. Meet Brandy, who Guinness has just labeled the smallest dog in the world. From the full story:
Quote:
Size: 6 inches measured from the base of the neck to the base of the tail.

Weight: 1 pound, 13 ounces.

That proof, along with a picture of Brandy splayed across a dollar bill, was sent to Guinness.

So in the 2006 Guinness book, there is bug-eyed Brandy, on the same page with the dog who can fit the most tennis balls in its mouth 5. Seeing this, you wonder how many tiny chihuahuas it could carry.

The perks so far have numbered just one. Last year, the Pedigree dog food company paid to fly Ron and Paulette Keller to Reno, where Brandy was paired with one of the largest dogs in the world for a three-day exhibit at Harrah's casino. Next to the other dog, a Great Dane, Brandy looked like a chew toy.
