I must confess that my loneliness is killing me now. Don’t you know I still believe that you will be here, and give me a small dog sign. Hit me baby one more time.

Ducky, the world’s smallest dog, might have some competition next year. There’s a new small dog in town named Penny Precious. Weighing in at just 14 ounces, her owner says she may never grow to more than a pound. She has to eat human baby food because dog food is too hard. When she was born, she was the size of a mouse. Apparently, she’s so small that when she walked across her owner’s computer keyboard, she didn’t press down a single key! That’s at least 92% magic.

St. Louis might just be the most small dog friendly city. The mayor there just signed into law the “Doggie Dining Bill,” which allows restaurant patrons to dine at restaurant patios and sidewalk cafes with their pets. I’ll have the veggie burger well done, and Penny Precious, she’ll have the child’s chicken fingers with fries.

Britney just can’t seem to keep herself out of the public eye. The AKC, among others, are publically shaming her for buying a puppy mill raised Yorkie at a pet store. Shame on your Britney. Hiss hiss. What kind of example is that? Marcia has asked for an official Smalldogarific comment on this travesty, and an official statement I shall deliver…

Dear Smalldogarific readers,

I hope that God will intervene so that her Britney’s Yorkie puppy can find a new home. I am certain that her pup would be better off roaming the Sunset Strip with hippies and vagrants. A night club is no place for a young pup, everyone knows that dogs have super sensitive hearing. If that pup hasn’t gone deaf already, from listening to the sound of Britney’s voice, its hearing will certainly be compromised whoring itself around to the hottest night clubs in Hollywood. Britney’s actions continually prove that she is unfit for mothering. Yorkie’s of the world need to mobilize and take action. Marica, can we get an Anderson Cooper 360 exclusive on this one?

I’ll drink to that:

I want you to know: despite my appearance at this function, I remain now, and will always be, a small dog.

Mark from Dogs With Cones wrote in yesterday to alert me to some really important small dog news. The Guinness Book of World’s Records has named Ducky, a little Chihuahua, the world’s smallest dog! Weighing in at 1.4 lbs and measuring 4.9 inches tall, Lisa Messier, Ducky’s owner says she paid $5,000 for him (according to USA Today, “based on his current weight, that’s $223.21 an ounce or $1,020.41 an inch.”) “Now, under Messier’s tutelage, he’s taken to wearing a tiny suede jacket with crystals.” More photos please. You should take time to read Lisa’s letter to USA Today, which is a fascinating look into the life and times of Ducky.

This isn’t exactly small dog news, but I feel it is noteworthy nonetheless. 3 baby tigers were rejected by their mother and took a particular liking to a dog that had recently given birth to her own litter of puppies. That photo shows the mother nursing the three tigers and her own pup. Awww.
