  1. The Tale of Zeus: The World's Tallest Dog



 Dogs are known for their loyalty, companionship, and unique characteristics. However, there are some dogs that stand out from the rest due to their size, and one such dog is the world record holder for the tallest dog.

The current world record for the tallest dog is held by a Great Dane named Zeus, who measured a whopping 111.8 cm (44 inches) tall at the shoulder. Zeus was born in Otsego, Michigan, in November 2008, and lived until September 2014 when he passed away at the age of five due to natural causes.

Zeus was a gentle giant, weighing over 155 pounds (70 kg), and was loved by his family and people who met him. He enjoyed spending time with his owners, Kevin and Denise Doorlag, and their four children, who were all fascinated by his size and friendly nature.

The Doorlags knew that Zeus was a special
dog from the moment they got him. He grew quickly, and they realized that he was not an average-sized Great Dane. They decided to measure him, and to their surprise, he was taller than the previous record holder, Giant George, who was also a Great Dane and measured 109.2 cm (43 inches) tall.

Zeus's record-breaking height earned him worldwide fame, and he was featured in several media outlets, including the Guinness World Records. His owners took advantage of his popularity to raise awareness about animal welfare and encourage people to adopt dogs from animal shelters.

Zeus's legacy continues to inspire people to appreciate the uniqueness of all dogs, regardless of their size or breed. His record-breaking height also shows how nature can produce incredible variations, even within the same species.

In conclusion, Zeus, the Great Dane, holds the world record for the tallest dog, measuring an incredible 111.8 cm (44 inches) at the shoulder. He was a gentle giant who captured the hearts of many people around the world and left a lasting legacy that continues to inspire us all

A British woman loves her 14 year old dog Winnie so much that she has had her cloned.  The procedure produced a puppy she called Mini Winnie.

Rebecca won a competition to have the procedure done in Korea.  It would normally cost around €80,000.

The puppy is now a healthy 2 year old dog.

Dogs are worth our love and kindness!

Dogs as pets and friends


If you have a dog as a family member then you will appreciate all the love and joy they give you.

Dogs give you unconditional love and are well worth the time and effort that it takes to look after them properly.
