"Tiny terrier Tom Thumb may be the world's smallest dog. The mighty midget from Scotland weighs in at a mere 3 ounces." The 2-week-old Chihuahua-Jack Russell mix named Tom Thumb can sit in a teacup, weighs about 3 ounces and is less than 4 inches from the tip of his nose to the end of his tail, according to London's Daily Mail.
Owner Archie Thomson is convinced Tom is not likely to grow much more. "He's perfectly proportioned, but absolutely miniscule," said Thomson, of West Dunbartonshire in Scotland. "Judging by the size of his paws and head, I'd be surprised if he grew much bigger than an inch or two more."
