Tiny Boss: The Chihuahua Behind Our B777-300ER Model

At Christmas in 2025, Tom, a 20-year-old from the UK, received a Chihuahua named Boss from his mum. The little dog had a personality that more than lived up to his name. He became the inspiration for our Tiny Boss B777-300ER model.

We wanted to bring that personality into an aircraft livery. The result is an orange-and-white design with a Chihuahua on the fuselage, paw prints on the engines and a favourite toy tucked into the artwork. It is part of NimoModel Original, our collection of aircraft models with original liveries.

For anyone who loves both planes and dogs, Tiny Boss brings those two interests together in a particularly personal way.

A Little Dog in Every Detail

The Chihuahua portrait near the nose is the first detail to catch your eye. Large ears, a green collar and a small heart-shaped tag give the illustration its character. Beside it, the Tiny Boss name makes the introduction. The long white fuselage leaves space around the artwork, so the little dog remains easy to spot among the aircraft's windows and doors.

Look further along the model and the story continues. The paw prints on the engines and tail are based on Boss's own prints. The ball near the tail represents his favourite toy, a nod to the dog who loves running around on the grass. These details give you something to discover after the first glance.

The orange tail and belly carry the colour through the aircraft, while the smaller illustrations invite you to look closer. From across a room, you see a bright aircraft model; up close, you can follow the details of one little dog's life.

The Tiny Boss B777-300ER on Display

At 1:157 scale, Tiny Boss gives the Chihuahua-inspired artwork a place on the distinctive form of the B777-300ER. Our showroom photographs show how the design follows the fuselage, with the orange accents continuing around the engines and underneath the model.

The side view is especially rewarding: the portrait, lettering and small motifs can be seen together. On the display stand shown here, the raised nose also brings the orange underside into view. We would give it a spot where you can enjoy both the whole aircraft and the details along its side, with enough space around the wings to let the silhouette stand out.

The underside photograph offers another perspective on the design. The orange belly forms a continuous sweep beneath the white fuselage, framed by the wings, engines and landing gear.

A Personal Choice for Someone Who Loves Dogs and Planes

Tiny Boss would be our pick for the aviation enthusiast whose phone is also full of pictures of their dog. The familiar aircraft shape gives it a place in a model collection, while the Chihuahua artwork brings a warmer, more playful mood to the shelf.

It also offers a thoughtful starting point for a gift. If someone enjoys aircraft and has a soft spot for Chihuahuas, the connection is already there. You can share the story of Boss, then let them discover the paw prints and toy ball for themselves.

The model is offered in a Standard version without lights and a Premium version with LED lights. Both feature the Tiny Boss livery, so the choice comes down to how you would like to display it.

A little dog, his paw prints and his favourite ball: those are the details at the heart of Tiny Boss. Take a closer look at the Tiny Boss B777-300ER to explore the two versions and check current availability and shipping information.
