So Long, Tiny Dancer!
Not Tiny Dancer!!!! If this isn't a "put the covers over my head" moment, I don't know what is! Over a year ago, I wrote about the 4-inch tall chihuahua from Florida. At the time, Tiny Dancer was in the running to be named the world's smallest dog by Guinness Book of World Records. He spent most of his young life helping others as a therapy dog.
Well, he shuffled off to heaven yesterday! Why is the world so cruel? He was only 2 years old. That's like 21 in dog years according to the Dog Years Calculator. His owner, Jenny Gomes, left this message on Tiny Dancer's Dogster profile:
I have lost the love of my life...my Tiny Dancer! He gave me so much to look forward to and he enriched so many lives with his Therapy Dog work! God why did you take him from me so soon...I still need him so much! My heart is breaking into little pieces and I can't stop crying! I know it will get better...I don't want it to...I want my baby back! I feel like I can't breath...It's really hard to see thru the tears...I know I have lots of other animals that need me...but...I need my little man back!Sorry for going on and on...but, I have no other outlet other than here! God...Please take care of my Tiny Dancer...I will see you again one day...I love you soooooo much!
Hold me closer Tiny Dancer! I'm sure he's up in heaven, dancing for all of us! Now if you'll excuse me, I have to add another shot of Bailey's to my coffee this morning.
Rest in peace, Tiny Dancer!

DOG SHOW!
My pain, my pleasure, my heart, my world.
I'm a big dog person, too--big dogs are the best! It's true, you can cuddle with them and they'll even let you use them as a pillow. You can wrestle them, which is always fun and good for a laugh. I love big, drooly, goofy dogs!

Good morning, sluts. Even though this is a sad news day, because we have lost such an... um... important figure in the world. He was a cutie though.
I own an Airedale terrier (65 lbs) but he thinks he's Tiny Dancer. He climbs his fat ass into my fat lap and we snuggle. It's fun times. I miss him lots now!! :(

Hi5.
Aww...that's sad. He was a cutie.
Small dogs need love too! My Boston is a whopping 19 pounds but he thinks he's a big dog. He never barks and is always happy and dancing around.
This is so sad...poor little guy. Rest in Peace little sweetie.
This just makes me worry about my little doxie even more...she's almost 10. I will totally freak when i lose her...i just know it. :(

Your garden club called. Their Ho is missing!
i like all dogs
My pain, my pleasure, my heart, my world.
Add me to the list of big dog lovers! You coddle little dogs, but cuddle with big dogs. I know a lot of people are afraid of big dogs, but my 2 beasts are the biggest lovers you'll ever meet. Little dogs freak me out.

Yes, ees gud. Now, if you pees shut mouf, we say nice prayer to God.
ISMU / IV,
Oh thank god i'm not the only little dog bigot here! Under 20 lbs? It's a cat.
Little dogs, IMO, are so annoying because they are 99% of the time completely out of control, and the owner thinks "Aw! Isn't that cute!" NO. It's annoying. Shut im up!

they are overbred, but it's still sad as all hell.
I wanna put him in my purse and take him everywhere with me.

Then you'd be the crazy lady that smells like a garbage can because she has a dead dog in her purse. That's actually kind of sexy.

WHY GOD, WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY? WHY DID YOU TAKE HIM? WHY DID YOU MAKE MY COFFEE MILK SOUR? WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY?

Yes, ees gud. Now, if you pees shut mouf, we say nice prayer to God.
IV- I think you share my sentiment that if it's small enough to fit in a blender, that's where it belongs.

I dislike tiny, shivering, yapping, nervous-appearing dogs, and this poor thing is better off where he is. The overbreeding for specific attributes is nasty beyond words. My neighbor has four tiny dogs who do nothing but yap in a shrill tone that gets on my last fucking nerve.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yur sketti...I will haz it.
I agree with all the posters who say that there are too many overbred dogs, and how it contributes to unnecessary health problems and shorter lives. Let's put an end to this nonsense; everyone should get mutts as pets instead of over-priced, unhealthy designer dogs.
I'm sure all the pooches out there would appreciate it if us humans stopped tampering with Mother Nature so much and let dogs be dogs the way God meant for them to be!!! Thank you very much....

Yes, these tiny dogs are so fragile and most don't live beyond 4 years. Their bones break easily and their organs are probably weak, too. People should quit making them like that.
My dog is the same color as him, but maybe darker in some areas. His name is Rusty and he is HUGE. He would probably have broken that dog just by licking it.
I tend not to like those small annoying dogs, however I feel her pain, I know how sad it can be when you loose one of your pets :(

Sweet baby boy. I agree with the overbreeding theory -- his death probably has something to do with all the genetic issues that made him tiny. More power to mutts! (says the proud mother of three)

Yeah, I bet the overbreeding might have had something to do with the poor dog's demise...poor thing. I'm sure the owner's devastated.
I was really wondering about the pet therapy thing-I suppose because I work in the health care field already...I really can see where it would be helpful. Most of the people we work with are elderly and have multiple medical problems, and when you are suffering like that, you are bound to become depressed. I know I would be.
I'd love to try to get our dog trained, he's from the pound, and they tell me he's still a puppy (8 months old).

I hope no fat bitch sits on him and kills him.
He helps lonelies and cancer people.

Michael Phelps is my favorite player. By the way, I saw his profile on millionaire&celeb dating site """""C e l e b C u p i d.c o m"""""" last week. It is said he is only intersted in dating wealthy young women on that site.
Someone sat on him?

Poor little guy, but ITA about the overbreeding. It messes with the natural evolution of the animal and allows recessive genes to dominate (or something like that). Mutt dogs are the way to go, they are healthier and usually need homes more.

My dick may not function, but I have not lost my smile!
We'll miss you Tiny Dancer!
MK- you are soooo sweet. xo
I've seen some places down in Mexico that could make a decent coin purse out of him.

if the eyes look off like that its a sign right?
edited cause i spelled regular 1 cent words wrong.
there are too many abandoned pups is true

Fair winds and following seas Tiny Dancer.

Poor little cutie probably died because he couldn't take another moment of his whack-a-doo owner.
Alright. If you get even a glimpse of this dog, you could tell he was unhealthy.
" TD's owner, Jenny Gomes, said that when he was born doctors wanted to euthanize him because of they feared health problems. "
Totally agreed about the over-breeding comments - SO sad! With that slutty new Disney Chihuahua movie coming out, I won't be surprised to hear more and more about over-bred/abandoned doggies. My sister just lost her Belgian Shepherd at 2 years old. It was too expensive and far away to autopsy.

They could go Getta Gund and substitute that in the hospital wards. He looked stuffed, so it's kind of same-sies, no?
Too much too early in a dead dog thread? Alrighty then.

Aww...poor thing. I thought smaller dogs lived longer. That's overbreeding for you.
I notice that she didn't post a cause of death. 100 bucks says she sat on him.
