Zeus, whose owners described as a very gentle giant, clinched the record for the world’s tallest dog in 2013’s version of the Guinness Book of World Records. When standing on his hind legs, Zeus measured a whopping 7 feet, 4 inches. Apparently his owners Denise and Kevin Doorlag, residents of Otsego, Michigan, received a lot of inquiries about whether or not there pet was actually a horse!
Unfortunately, the gentle giant died just three days before his sixth birthday. He was actually a qualified therapy dog, and in order to draw smiles from people, he usually sat on their laps. Weighing at a hefty 155 pounds, the smiles could easily have turned into grimaces.
