A dog only slightly taller than a soft-drinks can has been named by the Guinness Book of Records as the smallest adult canine in the world. “Heaven Sent Brandy”, a female chihuahua, was given the title of “smallest dog in terms of length” in 2005.
Heaven Sent Brandy is a mere six inches tip-to-tail and weighs less than two pounds. She is a mere six inches (15cm) from her nose to the tip of her tail and has legs as thin as lolly sticks.
Brandy and Coke: the tiny dog is barely taller than a drinks can Tipping the scales at a bantam-weight 2lb (0.9kg), Brandy lives in Largo, Florida, with her owner Paulette Keller and her family.
Chihuahuas are the smallest breed of dog in the world, with the average specimen standing between 6 and 10 inches (15 to 25cm) tall and with show dogs weighing no more than 6lb (2.7kg), although pet chihuahuas have been known to reach 10lb (4.5kg).
The tiny dogs and their counterparts such as the pug, shi tzu and pomeranian are currently the subject of controversy in the UK.
