See Freddy, The World’s Tallest Dog
One Great Dane named Freddy in Britain is the world’s tallest dog, according to the Guinness Book of World Records.
The New York Post reports that Freddy — who is over 7 feet 4 Inches tall standing on his back legs — turned 8 years old recently and owner, Claire Stoneman from Weeting, Norfolk, UK, threw the big dog a birthday party to celebrate.
Freddy weighs about 210 pounds and officially measures at 3.395 feet tall to his back; he was named the world’s tallest living dog in the Guinness World Records in 2017.
Freddy’s appetite is just as big, too. His food — consisting of kibble, minced beef, roast chicken and lots of treats — costs about $630 a month.
Stoneman told the Post, “Despite their size, they’re very kind-natured and put their paws on you if they know you’re upset. They love cuddling and I sleep with them on two mattresses in the living room at night.”
She added, “Freddy was actually the runt of the litter and now he’s got a Guinness World Record and is set to reach a second.”
Freddy even has his own Instagram page, his own posted, “Herrroooooo everyone. Here is a pic of me and my mummy and my sister Fleur. Celebrating our 8th Birthday a few weeks ago! Wuv you all Lots of licks and slobbers Freddy xxxxxxxxxx
