Giant George, The World’s New Tallest Dog

George, a 4-year-old Blue Great Dane, weighs a staggering 245 pounds and measures 42.625 inches (at the shoulder) in height.

For full story:

According to his owner, Dave Nassar, George consumes 110 pounds of food every month, and sleeps alone in his own Queen Size Bed.

Nassar and his wife, Christine, raised George from when he was 7 weeks old, but never expected him to grow so big.

There is no category for world’s biggest dog in the Guinness Book of Records, to stop owners from over-feeding their pets just to get them into the record book.

But there is one for tallest dog, and at 7 foot 3 inches tall, nose to tail; George might just reach those lofty heights.

Last August the world’s tallest dog, Gibson, a harlequin Great Dane, passed away from cancer months after making a brief but courageous comeback from the disease, despite losing his front right leg.
