The tallest and smallest dogs in the world meet up for adorable doggy playdate in America

By Katherine Gross Published 30 April 2025

A pair of pooches from America – tallest dog, Reginald, and smallest dog, Pearl – met earlier this month for a unique doggy playdate that truly demonstrates how new friends can come in all shapes and sizes.

Reginald (Reggie), a seven-year-old Great Dane from Idaho, towers over most other dogs –  the Guinness World Records title holder for tallest dog living (male) stands at a shocking 3 ft 3 in (1.007 m) from the floor to the withers.

But his new pal, Pearl, a four-year-old Chihuahua from Florida, holds the title for shortest dog living at just 3.59 in (9.14 cm).

 

Pearl, a pocket-sized pup from Florida, is a true diva.

How button boards are changing human-canine communication

 

A viral, online phenomenon claims to have further opened the door to human-canine communication. Buttons allow dogs to seemingly talk with their humans, but are all these button enthusiasts barking up the wrong tree? William Brangham and his pup Macy doggedly pursue the truth.

For Dogs, a Passive, Unresponsive Human Face Is a "Bad" Face

 

For Dogs, a Passive, Unresponsive Human Face Is a "Bad" Face

Active facial expressions are most likely to keep dogs focused on a person.

A lot of research shows that dogs look at our faces and read our emotions from our expressions. Some new research suggests that a passive, unchanging human face (think "poker face") is interpreted by dogs as a negative expression, and dogs respond accordingly.

KEY POINTS

An active stream of facial expressions is part of the normal communication process between humans.

A still and unresponsive face causes a negative reaction for young human children.

Dogs don't like to continue interacting with a person whose facial response is unchanging and unresponsive.
