Hercules: The World's Biggest Dog Ever

According to Guinness World Records Hercules was recently awarded

The honorable distinction of Worlds Biggest Dog by Guinness World Records.

Hercules is an English Mastiff and who has a 38 inch neck and weighs 282

Pounds.

With "paws the size of softballs" (reports the Boston Herald), the

Three-year-old monster is far larger and heavier than his breed's standard

200lb. Limit.

Hercules owner Mr. Flynn says that Hercules weight is natural and not

Induced by a bizarre diet: "I fed him normal food and he just "grew".

.. And

Grew. And grew. And grew.

Fawn sent this to me this morning...isn't it lovely? I love a big, big dog.

I got this from a coworker on Friday- I love him too! Big dogs are great! Plus, who would need a pony, you can just ride the dog!

Oh my, I do think it isn't real though, the shadows don't look proportional. However it wouldnt' surprise me if it was. When I was young my cousins raised hogs and had a big boar named Bob. We would ride him around the barn and he was big enough to carry three or four kids. Love your blog.
