THE world’s tallest dog has died aged eight.
Freddy measured 7ft 5in when he stood on his hind legs, according to Guinness World Records, 2016.
On all fours, he measured 3ft 4in and weighed 15 stone.
Owner Claire Stoneman, 45, revealed Great Dane Freddy was tiny when he was born.
She said: “As a puppy, he was the runt of the litter.
“I had no idea he was going to get this big.”
Claire, of Leigh-on-Sea, Essex, added: “He was not just the tallest dog but the dog with the most love and the biggest heart.
“He was my life. My joy. My annoyance. My happiness.”
Craig Glenday, of Guinness World Records, said: “Measuring this mountain of a dog was an unforgettable — if challenging — experience.
"Freddy was such a gentle giant and it was always a pleasure to see him. He will be missed by everyone. RIP Freddy.”
