Hey guys, Is this dog for real? I google searched it and most of the articles say that the Guiness Book of World records deemed him the Biggest Dog in the world. Or was this just really good play on pictures making the dog look this big? Some articles say that they are fake pictures by someone who was bored. It looks pretty real to me.

"Hercules: The World's Biggest Dog Ever According to Guinness World Records

Hercules was recently awarded the honorable distinction of Worlds Biggest Dog by Guinness World Records. Hercules is a Mastiff and has a 38 inch neck and weighs 282 pounds.

With "paws the size of softballs" (reports the Boston Herald), the three-year-old monster is far larger and heavier than his breed's standard 200lb. limit. Hercules owner Mr. Flynn says that Hercules weight is natural and not induced by a bizarre diet: "I fed him normal food and he just grew".... and grew. and grew."

This is a doctored photo and has been around for a couple of years. cute but not real.

i believe the world's largest dog WAS a mastiff, not a neapolitan mastiff. a very large and heavy and extremely overweight mastiff

Yes this this is a fake photo, the guy that actually bred the dog and did the picture was on Il Colesseo telling people he faked his photo back when it came out!
