Hercules may be the largest dog in the world, but the title of heaviest dog in the world belongs to Kell, an English Mastiff from the UK who weighed in at 286 pounds in August of 1999 at the age of two. He weighed more than Hercules but his neck was "only" 32 inches. The proud owner of Kell is Tom Scott of East Leake, Notts. Tom told reporters that Kell eats 100 pounds of beef each week and drinks gallons of goat's milk to stay in the great condition he is in.
In 1989, an English Mastiff by the name of Zorba set the world's record with the weight of 343 pounds at the age of eight. If Zorba were still alive today, there is little doubt that he would still hold the record in the Guinness Book.
In 2001, Kell had some competition for the title of heaviest dog in the world. Moose, an English Mastiff form Vernon, New Jersey set the record when he appeared on the Live with Regis & Kelly television show at 286 pounds, which had him tied with Kell with the Guinness World Record for heaviest dog. Later, it was clarified that he weighed 291 pounds, which made him the definite winner. Unfortunately, Moose died not long ago at the ripe age of 10, leaving his owner, Donna Vazquez, very heartbroken. It also left Kell the title once again of heaviest dog.
