Freddy the Great Dane, the tallest dog in the world, is dead

by

The dog living in Essex, England, with its owner Claire Stoneman, measured 103.5 cm (3 feet 4 inches) from foot to cross, or the highest point on a dog’s back. While standing, he climbed on people with a massive size of 226 cm (7 feet and 5.5 inches).

In terms of height, Freddy was somewhere between the greats of the NBA, LeBron James and Shaquille O’Neal.

The dog lived to be eight and a half years old, Guinness World Records said on Wednesday. Most great Danes live between eight and ten years, according to the American Kennel Club.
“It was my life. My reason. My joy. My annoyance,” Claire Stoneman told Guinness World Records. “My happiness and my utmost sadness. He was my Danish heart. My one in a million and loved by everyone.”

“He was not just the tallest dog, but the dog with the most love and the biggest heart. A total fool who ate by hand,” he added.

Freddy was once the protagonist of his litter and could not even feed on his mother, according to Stoneman, who said he had adopted her weeks earlier than he should have.

“Freddy was such a soft giant, and it was always a pleasure to see him join you,” Craig Glenday, editor-in-chief of Guinness World Records, said in a statement.

“I can barely believe he was the star of the litter. Freddy put a smile on everyone’s face and they will miss him at Guinness World Records. I’m glad we got a chance to celebrate his immense record. to books and shares its story with millions of people around the world. “

Stoneman later said in a post on Facebook that he has been “fighting tears that will not stop falling,” but finds solace in knowing how much Freddy was loved.
