Kim Passero, of Loretto, Ontario, said she believes her Yorkshire Terrier, standing at just 3 inches tall and weighing less than a pound, might be the shortest dog in the world. She describes Lulu as having a lot of energy and spunk stuffed into a small package. “She’s probably the sauciest dog I’ve ever had,” said Passero. The current holder of the Guinness World's Record for the shortest dog is a Chihuahua named Pearl, who stands at 3.59 inches tall. Lulu is only 4 months old, and Guinness won’t accept official measurements until dogs are at least one year old. Passero says that in another few months, when Lulu can officially be measured, she hopes to take over the world record.
