| Whoa...lookat this dog! My mom sent this email to me today- holy cow! Hercules was recently awarded the honourable distinction of Worlds Biggest Dog by Guinness World Records. Hercules is an English 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... and grew.

| Hmmm, I just tried to find it on the Guinness site and couldn't. Maybe it's photoshopped?

| This is on snopes actually. It's a very cool picture and hercules was the biggest dog but this is not a pic of him. |

| I saw that the other day, check Snopes.com out, they have a feature on it. That is a Napoleon Mastiff (not English), their max size is about half that. If that was real, I'd find the breeder and get one myself! My ex has a N.Mastiff that looks identical to that one, only not in size. Rizzo, sweetest dog ever, but messy as all get out. |

| Doh! I got tricked! I usually check Snopes too, just didn't think about it. Oh well, it's a funny picture anyway.

| It is a funny pic that I received in an email. It looked somewhat fake to me so I snoped it and sure enough, it's photoshopped! |
