World’s tallest dog Zeus and cat named by Guinness Book of World Records

The dog is a Great Dane named Zeus.

When Zeus stands on his hind legs, he towers 7 feet 4 inches above his owner, Denise Doorlag of Otsego, Michigan.

The three-year-old measures 44 inches from foot to withers, making Zeus the same size as an average donkey.

He weighs 115 pounds and eats around 12 cups of food a day, which is equivalent to an entire 30-pound bag of food.

According to Guinness book of records, Zeus broke the record of the previous record-breaking tallest dog, Giant George, who is 1 inch shorter. Zeus is therefore the tallest dog ever recorded in history.

ARCHIE - THE WORLD'S SHORTEST BULL – VIDEO

Archie, a 29-month-old Dexter from County Antrim, Northern Ireland, is today recognized as the Shortest Bull in the world.

He measures just 76.2 cm (30 in) from the hoof to the withers, 15 inches shorter than other bulls of his breed (typically 45 in).

His height means that he is dwarfed by the other animals at his farm, including even the dogs and goats.
