Freddy, The World's Tallest Dog Dies, Aged 8.

Well, that is just sad.


It is hard to love the big dogs, They just dont last as long.

Dogs. Nothing on this earth loves as hard as they do.

Yes, and the people who love them back I respect.
It doesn’t matter about our differences, dogs bring people together.

I've never trusted anyone who said they didn't like dogs.

Deal breaker for me.

My neighbor many moons ago had a Dane, Alexander, of course. Dude was a happy dog, that's for sure and didn't know his strength. He'd knock you over if you weren't prepared.

Got hit by a car next to my house. It's possible the car ended up with more damage. Seemed like he was ok. It's residential and most people don't go speeding through here so I assume the driver wasn't even doing the speed limit but still, that was a tough dog.

It's not that I don't like them, but their saliva gives me hives. Cats are safer. They don't tend to lick.

My cat, who's now trying to push my phone out of my hand because she's jealous, is easily twice as tall as my little mixed breed chihuahua-ish dog Pee Wee. Pee Wee Furman to be exact.

Best name for a chihuahua ever!!

Really intelligent dogs.

Hives? That's different and understandable.

I'm talking about the few odd people I've met over the years who just simply announced they hate dogs. No rational reason given, they just didn't like them.

It’s the ones my dog doesn’t like that I’m wary of.
Only a couple over 11 years. Something’s up with that.

They're psychopaths. Psychopaths don't have the ability to truly "like" anything . They don't understand the concept.

I knew this pilot for UA who had some Irish Wolfhounds.

Those dogs were giants too. Probably not as big as the dog you're talking about, but I remember this guy telling me they had a pretty short lifespan due to their size. Sad because they were really nice dogs too.

Looks like ATS has gone to the dogs. Can't have a rational discussion about anything with out bringing politics into every thread.

I have two Weimaraners! One is 9 and the other is 10 months. The oldest Apollo is the best dog I have ever owned. Very smart and well behaved. C a reply to: Bigburgh

They are all called Kevin and we hate them. So very wrong they are. I'd sometimes rather visit my friends dogs than them.

Victim of the DBL post, I am.
