Meet Pip, a four-month-old pug. Pip apparently weighs just over 1 pound and her owner, Joanne Astley, thinks she could be one of the smallest pugs in the world.
This tiny little ball of snuffles, Pip the tiny pug stands just less than four inches tall… so tiny she's smaller than a soda can!
Pip was born in England last January and has three other siblings who are twice her size! The four-month-old runt of the litter is a purebred pug, who just never seemed to grow, according to Joanne.
Joanne, a 54-year-old woman from Britain, decided to start breeding pugs last year, and was delighted when two-year-old Ruby gave birth to a litter of four in January.
But her delight soon turned to shock when she realized that one of the puppies was half the size of the others.
Check out the pics and video on the next page to learn more about Pip and see how tiny and adorable Pip is!

Cathy Stone its a sad thing. 1.2 million dogs are euthanized in shelters a year. This woman is parading around with a cross bred dog and the media is focusing on the dog instead of the fact that this Joanne Astley from Dudley, West Midlands in the UK is backyard breeding.
Back yard breeders are contributing to the over population problem as well as ruining pure breeds by turning out these mutated cross breeds as well as killing off certain genetic traits of the breed.
And all people seem to care about is how cute the dog is. This Joanne Astley should be ashamed, yet shes parading the dog around like its some trophy.
