The little guy, standing at just 9 inches tall and 12.9 pounds, is more than just a world record holder — he also has a story for the ages.“He had been shaved up his back, had blood stains around his neck from a chain or rope, and looked pretty rough,” Kimball told Guinness. “The clerk in the grocery told us he had been there for three days, and they were feeding him scraps.
“My dog seemed to be the opposite; he was small and friendly, so I thought it just seemed to fit him,” Kimball explained, adding, “Spike was a name for a large dog. My guy was small, but he had the attitude of a big dog.”Blind and hard of hearing, Kimball said she believes Spike has stuck it out through the years by maintaining a routine that seems him up by 7:30 am at the latest.
