Default Worlds biggest Dog, 282 pounds **It is a Fake, but cool**

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.

Kell: Slightly Smaller, But the World's Heaviest Dog Hercules' sheer volume may have won him the Largest Dog world record, but the Heaviest Dog title still rests with Kell who weighed in at 286 pounds in August of 1999. This English Mastiff, however, only has a 32-inch neck - far less than Hercules' 38-incher. Think about that for a second though - 32 inches is a standard waist size for a man!

Proud owner Tom Scott said Kell is two years old and is expected to continue to grow for the next two years. Kell needs to be fed 100lb of beef every week, and drinks gallons of goats' milk to stay healthy...

Have a wonderful day

No need to be sorry, it's just that shop was a little too cheesy. They should have said the dog weighed 482 pounds and not 282

If there was any dog to be that big it would be a mastiff. I know some one that raises and breads them. they got any where from 1500-10,000 for a pup.

I though it didnt look right, my neigbor breeds them and he has a male that is around 230 and it isnt anywhere close to being that big. Its a big damn dog but if that dog in the pic was real it should be over 400lb.

Thats a nice looking dog Mark. My buddy just got a Mastiff pup. I've been wanting one for years but, I think I'll wait til I retire.
