DANCER THE THERAPY DOG

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.

Dancer's owner, Jenny Gomes, said the diminutive Lake County canine may be on his way to being named the world's smallest living dog by Guinness World Records.

And Dancer may have a legitimate claim to the title. The last smallest dog -- measured by height -- was Danka Kordak of Slovakia, which stood 5.4 inches high, according to Guinness officials.

But that long-haired Chihuahua died. And Gomes said her Dancer is slightly smaller at 4.1 inches, from foot to the top of the shoulder.

Born June 8, Dancer can't officially claim the title until he is 1 year old.

"Then we're planning to throw him a birthday party, measure him officially and get him into the Guinness records as the smallest-living dog," Gomes said.

She said a shorter candidate could emerge but that's unlikely.

Guinness officials require height to be measured up to the animal's shoulders. A Largo Chihuahua is the smallest in terms of length, at 6 inches.

A neighbor of Gomes, who lives in Okahumpka, abandoned a female Chihuahua a year ago. Emaciated and near death when found, the dog was pregnant.

"We rescued her, and two weeks later she gave birth," Gomes said.

The first puppy was a normal-sized female.

"But about two hours later came Dancer," Gomes said. "He was about a quarter the size of his sister. He was about as big as my thumb."

His sister was adopted, but Gomes kept Dancer and his mother.

Veterinarians suggested Dancer be euthanized because he was likely to have serious health issues as he grew older. Gomes didn't expect the tiny dog to make it either, but she wanted to give him a chance

Cathy Griggs, Gomes' friend, said she first saw Dancer at the half-year mark.

"If I hadn't known better, I would have assumed he was a puppy," she said.

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.

Dancer's name was inspired by a popular Garth Brooks song.

Dancer eats every three or four hours because of his size. His only health problem is low blood sugar.

Gomes said a man in the veterinarian's office offered her $5,000 for Dancer when he found out the dog was an adult.

The Pope Was in Malta Recently

This is one of the billboards that heralded his arrival. You'll notice two small panda bears at the bottom of the billboard. In the internet 'pedobear' is often used as a symbol of pedophaelia.

"The cartoon character "Pedobear" is a renamed version of the 2chan ASCII art character "kuma". In his American incarnation, he is an anthropomorphic bear child predator that is often used within the community to mock contributors showing a sexual interest in under-age girls. Pedobear is one of the most popular memes on non-English imageboards, and is gaining recognition across Europe. Although the meme is apparently unknown in Poland, it has been used as a symbol of pedophilia by Maltese graffiti vandals."

I suspect it's this kind of 'publicity' that has finally forced the hand of the Vatican to say that abusive clergymen will be turned over to local authorities for prosecution.

Joke: A boy was ship wrecked

A boy was ship wrecked and he washed ashore on a deserted island; the only survivor. He lived many years alone eating what was on the island..berries,coconuts and clams..lots of clams.

One day, much to his happiness a young beautiful woman washed ashore. After awhile, he got to know her and explained all he had learned about the island.

"how have you lived all this time? what have you been eating?" she asked.

he went on to explain about the various things to eat on the island including all the clams.

some time later, as they became closer, the young woman asked him if he'd ever made love, to which he replied in the negative.

"well, let me show you how to make love", she said.

later after much loving the two of them lay spent on the sand.

"well, whata ya think about love making", she asked?

"it's really great" he said.

looking down he added.."but look what you did to my clam digger!"
