Smallest dog on earth gets a very big name

3/27/2012

Just one day after the heartwarming story of a vet who restored vision to a blind dog, we meet Beyoncé. Not the pop diva, but the pup that could be the world's smallest dog. The nearly three-week-old is "smaller than an iPhone" and weighed just 1 ounce at birth -- small enough to fit in a spoon. This runt of the litter wasn't expected to survive, but she's thriving and will be up for adoption in a few weeks. The Grace Foundation has posted pics on Facebook, so applications are likely to start pouring in. Jay-Z could always incorporate her harmonious howling into a duet with Blue Ivy on his next album.
