Tracy Wolfe, owner of Kevin, the recently named world’s tallest male dog by Guinness World Records, expressed her devastation after the passing of her beloved pet just days after his title was announced. Measuring at 3 feet 2 inches tall at his withers and a towering 7 feet when standing on his hind paws, Kevin was a gentle giant who loved taking naps and consuming 6-10 cups of food daily. Despite his impressive size, Kevin tried to fit into small beds and mimic the behavior of smaller dogs.
Kevin’s favorite pastime was taking naps and he was an enthusiastic eater, but he was also scared of many things like the measuring tape used to verify his record, vacuums, and even his first training class. Despite these fears, Kevin’s gentle nature made him a beloved member of the family. Unfortunately, Great Danes like Kevin have relatively short lifespans and typically live 8-10 years. After Kevin’s passing, the title of the world’s tallest male dog has once again become vacant. The family will forever cherish the memory of their gentle giant who brought so much joy into their lives.
