A TINY dog terrier the size of a coke can is vying to be named the world's smallest dog. Little Meysi is 7cm tall, 12cm long and weighs just 150g - about the same as a hamster. The tiny dog was so small at birth that her owner mistook her for a bit of placenta and nearly threw the tiny dog in the bin before noticing it moving. The puppy, now three months old, was born 16 times lighter than the heaviest of her five siblings in Jarocin, Poland. The owners are hoping to get Meysi into the Guinness Book or World Records as the world's smallest dog because she is such a tiny dog.

(1,587 posts)1. That is a tiny terrier!
The Tibetan Mastiff looks like the chow I had years ago, only much, much bigger.

At a zoo in China. It was several months ago and don't know if the report was true.

(12,051 posts)5. A similar dog was running around a Richmond neighborhood a few
years ago, prompting dozens of calls to the cops about a lion running loose. It was pretty funny.
IIRC, the callers said it was a 'lion,' and when the cops said, "Oh, you mean like a mountain lion?" -- people replied, "No. Like an AFRICAN lion."
