Is Samson the tallest dog in the world?
 

This Dog is massive.

I wouldn't fancy taking him out for a walk, it would be Samson taking me for a walk, when he is on the lead and sees another dog and pulls away, I'd go flying:laugh::laugh:

Is Samson the tallest dog in the world?

Wednesday, July 11, 2007

There are dogs, big dogs and then there is Samson – Britain's largest dog and possibly the tallest canine in the world.

Standing nearly 2m tall (6ft 5in) on his hind legs and tipping the scales at 124kg (19st 10lb), he is enough to make even the most intrepid mailman think twice.

The Newfoundland- Great Dane cross is so big he needs to wear a coat intended for a pony when it is wet and needs an outsize collar to fit his 73cm (29in) neck.

He costs owners Julie and Ray Woods £60 a month to feed, living on a diet of dried food and turkey legs, and requires four 3km (2miles) walks a day.

But the animal described by the Woods as a 'gentle giant' is only three years old – and his owners say he is still growing.

Samson was acquired from an RSPCA centre when he was six months old and already more than 100kg (16st).

The result of an illicit relationship between his Newfoundland father and a Great Dane, he was far bigger than his brothers and sisters.

Mrs Woods, 54, from Boston, Lincolnshire, said: 'He came bounding over and pinned us both to the wall, even though he was little more than a baby.

'But we were smitten straight away.

'We have not had too many problems with him. The only problem is that he snores quite loudly – sometimes I swear I feel the house start to shake.

'If he gets any bigger, though, we might have to move to a larger house.'

Mr Woods, 65, said: 'Although he looks big and imposing, he is actually a softy at heart – a gentle giant.'

Samson has some way to go to catch the world's heaviest dog – a 140kg (22st) mastiff in the US.
