I know that mastiffs get big but this dog is way out of the big range. My cousin has owned mastiffs for as long as I can remember some have crossed the 220lb mark but come on this dog looks more in the 400 - 500lb range. It is definitely photoshopped. I didn't even see the grass is part of the mans shirt, good eye!!!

It doesn't really look real. But it is a cute picture.

That horse is probably 1000 lbs to 1400 lbs. Therefor, that dog would have to be around, 800 lbs. Not possible.

I sat next to an English Mastiff at a recent dog show, and he weighed 240 lbs. He was only 2 years old and they expected him to top out at about 260 lbs. This dog had the most massive head! When he stood he was elbow high with the owner. They said they had never seen a larger mastiff in the US, but England had them that big or larger.

Here is a picture of the dog -- doesn't do him justice, for sure.

It just seems that if the dog were truly that large he would weigh more than what they say he weighs. I think he would also be in the Guinness Book of World Records which he is not.

Ditto!

"Definitely photoshopped. You can see a mistake where the grass is part of the guy's shirt."

Good call! Yep, it's definitely photoshopped. There are very large dogs out there but this one is a fake, it's way out of proportion to everything else as well. I give the person credit though for a good laugh!
