A Great Dane from the Strathroy area has broken the Guinness World Record for world’s tallest female dog.
Owners Cathy and Dave Payne were contacted by Guinness Tuesday morning and told they did in fact break the record. They will be in the 2014 Guinness Book of World Records.
The four-year-old dog named Morgan was officially measured by veterinarian David Kirby in January. The measurements were taken from the shoulders, four separate times for accuracy. Her height ranges from 37.7 to 38.7 inches tall.
The owners then sent the results to Guinness make it official.
Morgan weighs 200 pounds and eats seven cups of dry kibble and two cups of wet food per day.
