Is this the world's tallest dog? SEVEN FOOT Great Dane who weighs 12 stone and snoozes for 22 hours a day is so big he sleeps on an adult sized mattress

Three-year-old pet Major is more than seven foot tall when on his hind legs and weighs a whopping 12-stone. 


His owners, Brian and Julie Williams from Penmaen, south Wales, say he may look intimidating but he wouldn't hurt a fly. They are waiting for confirmation he is the world's tallest dog and officials from Guinness will visit them and two other dogs before announcing the new record holder.
