Hold me closer, tiny Dancer




LEESBURG -- Meet tiny Dancer, a rust-colored, long-haired Chihuahua that may just be the world's smallest dog, weighing 18 ounces and standing not much more than 4 inches tall.


...Those who know Dancer say he doesn't have the typical Chihuahua personality.


"He's a ham. He loves people," Gomes said.


She carries him wrapped in a small blanket or pushes him in a baby stroller. At home, he stays in a small playpen.


He is always at risk from larger animals.


"His mother is the only one I let near him. She's very protective," Gomes said.


He is so fragile, a fall from a chair or table could be fatal.


Video - he's so little he squeaks instead of barks!
