Great Dane in the United States wins title of ‘tallest dog in the world’

A Great Dane was crowned the dog live tallest in the world Guinness World Records . Two-year-old Zeus, who lives in Bedford, Texas, measures 1,046 meters, and was officially awarded his title on March 22 after his height was measured and confirmed by a veterinarian.

the tutor of animal , Brittany Davis, said she always dreamed of having a Great Dane named Zeus and that she was overjoyed when her brother gave her the puppy when he was just eight weeks old. Although she was initially nervous about his large size, she soon fell in love with him.

Davis told Guinness World Records that “he’s been a big dog since we got him, even for a puppy. He had huge paws.”

Zeus’ Olympian diet includes 12 cups of dog food every day, as well as occasional fried eggs and snacks. But his favorite food is ice cubes, Davis said.

The brown and gray colossus is now a local celebrity, showered with attention and treats when he and his owner visit the Dallas Farmers Market in Texas .

“The most common comment we hear is, ‘Wow, that’s a horse!’, ‘Can I ride it?’ or ‘Does he have a saddle?'” says Davis. “The answer to all these questions is ‘no’.”

According to the American Kennel Club, Great Danes, also called Great Danes, are descended from hunting dogs from the Middle Ages. Although they are known to be larger than other breeds, they are prone to some health conditions and tend to be shorter-lived than other dogs.

Last year, Freddy, a Great Dane once celebrated by Guinness World Records as the tallest dog in the world, died at age 8.

The dog, who lived in Essex, England , measured 1,035 meters from the foot to the shoulder region. When standing on its hind legs, it towered over people, reaching 2.26 meters.

The tallest dog ever recorded in history was also a Great Dane named Zeus, according to Guinness. His height has been estimated at 1,118 meters.
