He was a legend in his own lifetime, but Giant George, dubbed “the tallest dog ever”, has now gone to the fluffy kennel in the sky.
The colossal canine died last week just one month shy of his eighth birthday.
The blue Great Dane measured 1.092 metres (43 inches) from paw to shoulders.
However, George could elevate himself to an astonishing 2.210 metres (7ft 3in) when stood on his hind legs.
Weighing in at 245 pounds, he was anointed by Guinness World Records in 2010 not just as the world’s tallest dog, but the Tallest Dog Ever.
He passed away at his home in Tuscon, Arizona, on October 17, 2013, as he was comforted by owners Dave and Christie Nasser.
In a post on George’s official Facebook page, the grieving owners wrote: “It is with a heavy heart that we announce Giant George died last night.
‘George passed away peacefully surrounded by loved ones; one month before his eighth birthday.
‘We appreciate the love and support you have given Giant George over the last several years.
“We look forward to honoring his spirit by continuing his charitable works.’
