Imagine taking him for walkies! George the Great Dane is 7ft long, weighs 18st and is the world's biggest dog... but he's terrified of chihuahuas....

Hi everyone, according to an article in the http://www.dailymail...chihuahuas.html entitled, "Imagine taking him for walkies! George the Great Dane is 7ft long, weighs 18st and is the world's biggest dog... but he's terrified of chihuahuas" by Dave Nasser:

The first time we saw George, our beloved Great Dane, he was no more than a tiny, cowering ball of fuzzy fur.

As my wife Christie opened the door of the crate he'd travelled in, he teetered to a standing position and looked out at us, moving his head slowly from side to side, taking in the wonder of it all.


Finally, as if weighing us up and deciding we were acceptable, he tentatively pushed his little nose forward and gave Christie her first lick.

Though it didn't really register, George's paws were comically large even then. But all we saw was this cute puppy.

We certainly never dreamed he would one day become the biggest dog in the world, standing nearly 4ft high at the shoulder, 7ft long and weighing nearly 18 stone [1 stone=14 lbs, therefore, 18 stone = approximately 252 lbs.!]. Right now, he just looked bewildered.

See the article for pictures of George.

Enjoy and have a great day,

Me too.
My neighbor used to breed chihuahuas.
I've been bit (snipped at) by more chihuahuas than any other breed.
They think they are pit bulldogs.


I call these dogs Egyptians. They build pyramids in the yard.
