18 months old Freddy is Britain’s tallest dog! This Great Dane, 7-foot-4 standing on his hind legs and weighs 154 pounds, has long since surpassed, in terms of height, his 5-foot-4 owner, Claire Stoneman. Freddy is still growing and he appears headed to taking the world’s tallest dog title away from Zeus, the Great Dane in Michigan.

Freddy was the runt of the litter, but with a $100-a-week diet of regular dog food he enjoyed a huge growth spurt.
