Standing at a mere three inches and weighing less than a bag of sugar Britain's smallest puppy is so tiny she thinks she's a kitten.
高仅三英寸,重不过一包糖,这只英国体型最小的狗狗是那么的小,以至于它认为自己是只小猫咪。
Disney, a pocket-sized Chihuahua, was part of a litter of three born on January 25 - but hasn't grown since she was eight-weeks-old.
狄斯妮,一只口袋点儿大的吉娃娃,出生于1月25号,与其同胞出生的还有两儿。而狄斯妮自出生八周后身体就没再长。
She weighs just 14oz and can be carried around by owner Natalie Vanes, 26, in the palm of her hand.
狄斯妮只有14盎司重,它26岁的主人娜塔莉·维斯可以手捧着狄斯妮到处逛。
The mother-of-one has to keep Disney away from her three other dogs at her home in Coseley, West Midlands, in case they mistake her for a toy.
娜塔莉有一个孩子,家住西米德兰兹郡的科西利。平日里娜塔莉要将狄斯妮和她的另外三只狗分隔开来,以防这三只狗误把狄斯妮当玩具。
As a result, Disney forged an inseparable bond with Ms Vanes' pet kitten Kiera and they have been best friends ever since.
于是乎,狄斯妮与维斯女士的宠物猫基拉建立了密不可分的联系。它们自此成为彼此最好的朋友。
The pair also sleep together on a heat-mat in a special dog crate, which is kept in Ms Vanes' bedroom, and can fit in a plant-pot together.
狄斯妮和基拉还一起睡在一个特制的狗笼里,共享一张隔热垫。狗笼放在维斯女士的卧室。它们还能挤在一个植物盆里。
Ms Vanes, who lives with her fiance Stephen, 30, and their five-year-old daughter, said: 'Disney was a normal sized little puppy and was fed and reared by her mum Tinkerbell and didn't really need any special treatment.
维斯女士和她30岁的未婚夫斯蒂芬以及他们五岁大的女儿住在一起。维斯女士说: “狄斯妮这只小可爱,体型正常,由它的妈妈汀科贝尔喂养,并不需要特别的照顾。”
'I have to be careful when I take her out, I wrap her in a blanket as she gets cold and no collar is big enough to fit her.“
我带狄斯妮出去的时候必须很小心,为了防止它着凉,我会把它放在一个篮子里,因为没有大小适合它的项圈。
'She became best friends with Kiera as we needed to keep away from the other dogs in case she got squashed.“
狄斯妮和基拉成了最好的朋友,因为我们要把狄斯妮和其他狗分开以防它被挤压。”
'They soon became inseparable and would be by each other's side all the time. Disney plays with the tiny fluffy mice toys as dog toys are too big and heavy for her.
狄斯妮和基拉很快就密不可分,总是如影随形。狄斯妮玩的是小小的毛绒老鼠玩具,因为狗的玩具对它来说太大也太重。
'She also enjoyed stealing Kiera's food, she thought she was a kitten and they snuggle up together as well.'
狄斯妮还很喜欢偷吃基拉的食物,它认为自己就是只小猫咪。它们也会相互依偎在一起。”
Disney only weighs the same weight of a five-week-old average Chihuahua, which currently makes her the smallest dog in Britain.
狄斯妮只有一只一般五周大的吉娃娃那么重,这使它成为不列颠目前体型最小的狗。
The 14-week-old pup is on course to break a Guinness World Record for the smallest dog if she continues to grow at the same rate.
如果它保持现在的生长速度,这只14周大的小狗即将打破吉尼斯世界纪录,成为世界上最小的狗。
