Then buy some cows, breed them, and selectively breed them until they're really small. But don't forget about secondary characteristics like aggressiveness, etc. Don't breed them to be a smash-faced pug with breathing problems.

Better hurry, though, since culture might change and suddenly domesticated animals like cows are recognized as people with rights and 20th century burger-eating culture becomes taboo.

Op accidentally starts a cattle ranch in process of acquiring house pet. Not enough generations of cows pass, and they die as a farmer.
