It is a soft toy,it is a mechanical toy, no he is a real,living breathing,3 inch tall Scooter,the Maltese terrier.

It is unbelievable but true. He can be a contender for the world,s smallest dog.He is a tiny bundle of fur, belonging to Miss Cheryl Mcknight of Auckland NewZealand.

He has stopped growing after reaching the magnificent height of three inches, an inch shorter than the world’s shortest dog record holder Boo Boo a ling haired Chihuahua living in USA.

Scooter is so small that he can sit in a tea cup. In fact Cheryl has made a special jumper made out of purple sock so that she does not accidentally step on him.

Walks are out as no leash is so tiny that can fit him, and obviously with his tiny feet it would take him a whole hour to walk some distance. Even his feeding bowl is an egg cup, from which he feeds three times a day, and his bed is in a shoe box.

In fact Cheryl did not want him in the beginning,for nearly ten weeks. she said let someone else have him but now she loves him. Wow, I read about the miniature fairy world when I was young but it seems that miniatures are part of this world.
