Pint-Sized Chihuahua Named Pearl Certified as World's Smallest Dog

Pearl, a 2-year-old Chihuahua from Florida, holds the Guinness World Record for the shortest dog at just 3.59 inches tall.
Pearl weighs only 1.22 pounds but has a big personality and loves being dressed up.
Pearl's aunt previously held the record at 3.8 inches, but Pearl now claims the title of world's smallest dog.
The largest dog on record stands at over 3 and a half feet tall, in comparison to Pearl who is shorter than a dollar bill.
Dogs of Pearl's tiny size are extremely rare, with the smallest dog ever recorded dying in 1945 at only 2.8 inches tall.
