A cutie from Guinness Book of Records

Officially, the achievement in the nomination “the shortest dog in the world” is registered in the Guinness Book of Records. This title belongs to the chihuahua Millie from Puerto Rico. It was back in December 2013, and no one knows if it has been updated since then or not. But in the city of Jarocin (Poland) there is a terrier that can compete for the title of the smallest in the world. The dog named Macy has only 6.9 cm at the withers, which is almost 3 centimeters less than Millie’s
It can even fit in a coffee cup!

When Macy was born, he was so small that the owner did not even immediately realize that it was a puppy. And when she recognized him, she began to nurse him. She had to take a vacation at work to nurse the puppy, he was very weak, he had to be fed with a pipette every hour.

In three months, Macy gained only 100 grams of weight, if compared with his brothers and sisters, he was three times less. Today Macy weighs 250 grams. He is very nimble, active and now and then running around the house. The hostess ordered a special cage for him, where he can rest, and so that no one inadvertently stepped on and sat on him.

If not for its tiny size, it would be absolutely no different from its relatives.
