You might wonder what life is like after winning one of the most prestigious titles in the world, the title of course of the world’s smallest dog. I am sure some of you assume that after the flash bulbs fade and the paparazzi scatter that life is likely to take many wrong turns, as it does for so many child actors who are thrust into a grown up world of public notoriety too quickly (i.e. Britney). Some of you may remember Dancer, the little chihuahua who took home the title last year. Where is dancer now you might ask? Passed out on a beach in Mexico? On the lam from the law? Of course not!!!!! Dancer is now showing off his skills as a therapy dog! If you go to that link you can watch him in action!
It looks like the dog bottled water market is booming! Human aren’t the only ones who need their water put into plastic and shipped half way around the world for enjoyment and consumption. I have a friend whose dog made herself sick from dehydration when she refused to drink tap water, apparently, they learned she had a taste for Evian.

It looks like Jack Russells may be acquiring the reputation as the new pit bull of the dog world. Does that even make sense?
This is not small dog news, but congrats to the 200lb mastiff named Lurch who has donated blood 20 times to help save the lives of other pups in need.

I am not going to lie, I am a little disappointed in yesterday’s Puppy Bowl. I had high hopes, after last year’s amazing show, but this year, I felt that the puppies featured were hardly what I would consider small, and about 75% of the puppies were large breed dogs. What gives Animal Planet? Am i sizeist?
A bizarre story out of Alice, Texas, the mayor of the small town shamefully resigned after stealing her neighbor’s Shih Tzu Puddles. Grace Saenz-Lopez was asked to watch her neighbor’s Shih Tzu when they took a vacay over the summer. Upon their return, Saenz-Lopez claimed Puddles had died while they were and spared them the trouble by already burying him. Presto chango, Puddles becomes Panchito, and suspicion is aroused when Saenz-Lopez takes an identical dog to the local groomer. Saenz-Lopez later admitted that she stole the dog, claimed that he had been mistreated by the neighbors, but refused to give him back. Now Puddles/Panchito is at the center of a brutal custody battled. Saenz-Lopez, before you do anything rash, just ask yourself, what would Britney do???

Here’s proof that small dogs hate the Super Bowl too. Do you think Buddy would have chewed up tickets to Puppy Bowl? I think not.

Another one bites the dust, almost. What’s wrong with people throwing a perfectly good small dog (shown above) away?

So distraught from all the dog adoption drama, Ellen decided to take a day off from the taping of her show. Things should be back to normal for next week’s broadcasts. Oh, what will the weekend hold??? Save Iggy!!!! PS, that’s a photo of Iggy above.
Pierre Barnoti, executive director of the Montreal SPCA, likened many pet adoption interviews to “the Spanish Inquisition…I’ll be crucified for saying this, but a lot of people are convinced this is the only way of doing it.”
Just in time for the holiday shopping rush, a mall in Michigan is opening its door to small dogs! Iggy wants an Ipod shuffle! 123-go!
Britney apparently requested her Yorkie couriered to her as she shopped in a Beverly Hills department store. I wish they’d go ahead and standardize the sizes on small dog clothing, it’s so hard to tell what’s going to fit.

Did you know that October is Adopt-A-Dog Month?? And, yesterday was World Animal Day.
Not only is Disney allegedly responsible for employing child-labor and deplorable working conditions, but now, they may be indirectly responsible for the neglect of dogs!

A miniature wire-haired dachshund made a big discovery in the UK. While on strolling the beaches of Dunwich, Suffolk Dasiy came upon the giant fossilized bone of a woolly mammoth. “It was obvious that it was some sort of bone and my first thought was that it might be from something like a mammoth. Daisy looked quite pleased with herself, even though it was far too heavy for her to pick up. She loves gnawing on bones and always has the leftover lamb leg bone from our Sunday roast.” This proves, not only do small dogs single handedly combat global warming, but they are groundbreaking palaeontologists!
In an effort to add salt to her still fresh wounds, PETA is urging Kevin Federline to also take custody of Britney’s small dogs.
And, it turns out that children are just asking for it.
