"BOOMER" - THE TALLEST DOG?

In this 2009 photo, Boomer, a 180-pound Landseer Newfoundland, drinks water from the kitchen sink at the home of the owner south of Casselton, N.D.

Boomer may be a buster: Measuring 3 feet tall at the shoulders and 7 feet long from nose to destructive wagging tail, his owner thinks she may have the world’s tallest living dog.

Caryn Weber says her 3-year-old Landseer Newfoundland keeps all four paws on the floor when he drinks from the kitchen faucet in her family’s farm house in eastern North Dakota.

Boomer can stare into a car window eye to eye with a driver. A 20-pound bag of dry dog food lasts a couple of weeks.
Weber says the fluffy black and white dog “comes into the house and his tail is so high everything gets knocked around.”

Weber sent Boomer’s measurements to Guinness World Records. The previous record holder was a nearly 4-foot-tall Great Dane that died last summer.

The previous tallest dog, the Great Dane that died last year, lived here in Grass Valley/Nevada City, CA. He was featured a lot in the local newspaper and was mourned when he died. I never did see him. Wish I had.

Pomp, I'm afraid to ask about Jazzy & Dexter because you haven't mentioned them since forever & the pics poster here are old. Did you do away with them for nipping into your Rice Krispies treats?:(:(
