”Once the runt of the litter, Freddy the Great Dane is now the world’s Tallest Dog.
Guinness World Records recently bestowed that title on the giant pooch from England, who measures 7-foot-6 when standing on his hind legs. Owner Claire Stoneman never thought Freddy would get so big, because he struggled to feed as a pup. The 200-pound Great Dane now devours $120 worth of food a week, including whole roast chickens. Stoneman doesn’t mind the hefty food bill. “He’s my baby,” she says, “and I can’t imagine life without him.”
