Meet Gibson. The World’s Tallest Dog

You might say he’s a freak of nature. He’s certified as the world’s largest dog. Standing on his hind legs he measures over 7′ tall and has a shoulder height of almost 43″. He actually holds 3 Guinness World records as the tallest dog, the tallest Great Dane, and the tallest therapy dog.

When I was young I always though it would be great to have a big dog. My parents always insisted that our poodle was big enough. The reason they wouldn’t ever let us have a big dog was because of the mountain of poop they would leave in the back yard.

Gibson - Worlds Tallest Dog

At my last job I had a good friend who had a Great Dane. In fact he liked his Great Dane so much that he got another one. He actually had to get another one because Roman got the shakes when he went to work. Anyways…I used to tease him about the poop mines he must have in his backyard. He insisted it was no big deal as long as he sprayed down the mountains of poop with a water hose twice a day. :lol: He also mentioned he lost a couple saplings in the backyard due to the amount of urine a pair of 130 lb dogs are able to deposit with one lift of the leg. I suggested teaching him how to use the toilet. No go there either. He insisted it was to large for any toilet. I think I’ll stick with my Bichon ;) I hope you enjoyed this post about the worlds tallest dog.

That is one huge dog! I didn’t even know dogs could get that big. I was almost thinking it was a dalmation at first.

Not that bad actually if you get him a premium dog food. Prolly about 30 dollars every 2 weeks.

I’m pretty sure my buddies dogs ate a little more than a 50lb bag of food per month. Think thats about $50/mo.

Nice Dane! Mine is only 6′7 and 192 lbs, he is Fawn with the blk mask and 3 yrs old so I know he will get bigger cause they don’t reach full size until almost 5. I raise Danes and almost had the worlds record for largest litter for a Dane , My bitch had 22 pups on her 1st litter and the record for a Dane is 23. I bout died I delivered pups October 30th thru the 31st at 11:56 pm luckly I was in Vet school and worked for the local Vet so I had a nice welping area for her and thank God she was a large Dane cause none of her pups were under 1 lb each we only lost 1 pup and that is because she stepped on it, I felt like a Mom again bottle feeding every 2 hours LOL. I have pics if you want to see! just email me buffyb@centurytel.net.
