According to The Sun (http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/article719987.ece): this Chihuahua is "just a fraction taller than a cola can — was named the world’s smallest hound by the Guinness Book of Records and has finished growing. Four-year-old Brandy weighs only 2lbs and cannot even BARK as her lungs are too small. Owner Paulette Keller, of Largo, Florida, said: “When I saw her I just fell in love with her.” Paulette, 53, whose pint-sized pooch has become a hit on US TV, added: “With a dog like this you have to be careful. She can’t even jump on or off anything because her legs are so tiny."

Hahaha! I saw that baby polar bear a week ago on TV! He's ADORABLE! He has a stuffed baby polar bear toy that he sleeps on sometimes which is in one of your pictures. He's as cute as "Knute" was. Ha! He sleeps with his tongue sticking out.

Both of these bears live near you MJ! Tell 'em I said HI! What a sweetie he is...

[MJ§LastDance]

The polar bear is so cute! MJ, I'm not real fond of spiders, either. Ames, I wonder if those pigeons were able to fly far with those cameras on them?

[WildflowerNJ]

That polar bear is so cute, yes.....so sweet!! The spiders sure are big!!

Ames, that is some picture...yeah, I wonder how heavy those little cameras were....

[surfnburn]

Haha......it's like the African Swallow carrying a coconut puzzle... I think these birds were photographers...

[Pankie]

I love that big gray cat and the polar bear!

[Yuppie]

Those little bears are sooo cute.

[surfnburn]

Aww...it's a beautiful beach, Beth.. I wish I could go for a walk with you. I love beach walks at night. Some California beaches have sand that will spark when you walk on it... You can see it in the dark. I think it's phosphorus..

[WildflowerNJ]

An 11-day-old piglet became the center of attention at ByFord's Farm near Newent, southwestern England.

The little, the youngest of a litter of seven, was born with a heart-shaped patch on its side and thus was dubbed "Valentine" by its specialist breeder Eric Freeman.
"The clear heart-shaped mark is a first I have even seen in my life," the 75-year-old Freeman said. It was "stealing the show and winning a legion of fans in the build-up to Valentine's Day," Freeman added.
Yes, it wasn't a common breed of pig; it was a best gift to Valentine's Day.
