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.

Though this record looks like it was given out in 2005, Brandy is the new world’s smallest dog? This record seems to change every month. Poor Boo Boo and Ducky.
In an attempt to be small, a fat dog looses half his weight. It’s not easy being small. Maybe your dog should join the “PetFit Challenege.”
Remember to brush!

Dear friends…my dearest, sweetest friends:
What is going on in the world? Time has fallen back, the writers are striking and Smalldogarific is nowhere to be found. I feel as though I am letting you (and small dogs) down. I hope this post will make up for my negligence. Just remember though, if we don’t stand together we stand alone! In solidarity. In answer to your question Steve, Smalldogarific is now on an indefinite hiatus until the writer’s hug out their differences. Okay that’s not true, but I would like to extend a big thanks to all my adoring readers have stepped in to make today’s posting possible,
Like, this gem, that Steve himself sent in!

That dog doesn’t fly off the table gracefully like my air hockey pucks do.

And, Michele, sent me this mind-blowing blog featuring puppy jewelry. That’s Cupcake modeling the “Earth Dog” line. The necklace even features a vegan “leather” cord! I agree Michele, Cupcake DOES look good in that necklace.
Friends don’t let friends with children get small dogs.
A man on a Virgin Atlantic flight from Chicago to London’s Heathrow broke out in song to muffle the barks of a small dog that he smuggled onto the flight. “A Virgin worker said: “We thought we had a drunk on our hands because he was singing so loudly. But he was just trying to drown out the sound of his dog.”" The pup was permitted to run up and down the aisles during the flight.

Thumper, a dog in Greenville, Maine is credited with saving his owner after a fire engulfed his home. Get this, the first marshal investigator believes that the fire was actually started by the owner’s cat Princess, tipped over a kerosene lantern. Luckily everyone escape safely, but Princess did get her tail singed by flames.

It’s a girl, it’s a girl!!! There’s been an upset for the title of world’s smallest dog in height, measuring in at 4 inches tall, Boo Boo, a long-coat chihuahua, has unseated Ducky, a smooth coated chihuahua, who now seems like a giant at 4.9 inches tall. A letter dated September 10, 2007, from the Guinness Book of World Records, confirmed Boo Boo’s new title. Lana Elswick, Boo Boo’s owner, sent me the above photo and I wanted to share its magnificence with all of you. Lana, do you have to special order Boo Boo’s clothing?
