Proving he is still small and mighty at the same time, Tiger of Bakersfield, Calif., reclaimed the title of America's fastest Chihuahua, coming in first over 14 other tiny champs at the fourth annual PETCO Unleashed National Chihuahua Race finals.
The 4-year-old pooch, PETCO Unleashed National Champion 2006, passed up the entire bunch of the nation's fastest Chihuahuas – including the popular 2007 winner, Maddy of New York City - covering the 35-foot-long (1/18th furlong) track in just 1.9 seconds.
All 15 finalists raced their little hearts out in front of thousands of cheering baseball fans at PETCO Park in San Diego between innings of the San Diego Padres-Colorado Rockies game on Sunday, Aug. 31.
