Meet 'Giant George' the 7ft-long blue Great Dane who just last month was recognized by Guinness as the world's tallest dog.
Standing at nearly 43 inches tall from paw to shoulder, and weighing a staggering 245lbs this dog outweighs most other Great Danes by 100 lbs! Pop the hood for more.
Pictured here in the parks of Tucson , Arizona , George, a four-year-old blue Great Dane, looks more like a miniature horse than a dog. George's owners, David and Christine Nasser, received confirmation from Guinness World Records last month that he is the world's tallest dog. 'He's 42.625 inches at the shoulder,' said David. 'He's very very unique.'
According to David, George consumes 110lbs (50 kilos) of food every month, and sleeps alone in his own Queen Size Bed. David and Christine raised George from when he was 7 weeks old, but never expected him to grow so big.
George measures more than 7ft from nose to tail. With size comes problems: The giant Great Dane barely fits in the back of his owner's SUV The couple eventually had to move their aptly named dog out of their king sized bed, when he grew too large for the three of them to share the same sheets..
Dr. William Wallace of the Buena Pet Clinic in Tucson , who witnessed the documentation necessary for the Guinness record, said: 'In my 45 years of experience working with giant breed dogs, without question, George is the tallest dog I have ever seen.
