Hercules: The World's Biggest Dog Ever According to Guinness World
Records Hercules was recently awarded the honorable distinction of
Worlds Biggest Dog by Guinness World Records. Hercules is an English
Mastiff and who has a 38 inch neck and weighs 282 pounds.
With "paws the size of softballs" (reports the Boston Herald), the
three-year-old monster is far larger and heavier than his breed's
standard 200lb. limit. Hercules owner Mr. Flynn says that Hercules
weight is natural and not induced by a bizarre diet: "I fed him normal
food and he just "grew"... and grew. and grew. and grew.

Kell: Slightly Smaller, But the World's Heaviest Dog Hercules' sheer
volume may have won him the Largest Dog world record, but the Heaviest
Dog title still rests with Kell who weighed in at 286 pounds in August
of 1999. This English Mastiff, however, only has a 32-inch neck - far
less than Hercules' 38-incher.
Think about that for a second though - 32 inches is a standard waist size for a man!
Proud owner Tom Scott said Kell is two years old and is expected to
continue to grow for the next two years. Kell needs to be fed 100lb of
beef every week, and drinks gallons of goats' milk to stay healthy...
