Jiff the Pomeranian Earns Two Places in the Guinness Book of World Records for Being the Fastest Dog on Two Paws

Jiff the Pomeranian, about whose amazing tricks we’ve previously written, has earned two places in the Guinness World Records. Jiff’s first record was for walking on his hind legs and the second record was for Jiff walking on his front legs.

Jiff, a Pomeranian from Los Angeles, California, has earned his place in the 60th anniversary edition of the Guinness World Records book, released in September, for two new records: the fastest 10m on hind legs (6.56 seconds) and fastest 5m on front paws (7.76 seconds).
