“The hobbit you just called fat? He’s skipping second breakfast. The dwarf woman you called ugly? She spends hours braiding her beard so you can tell her from a dwarf man. The Uruk-Hai you just killed? He’s been abused by Saruman. See that Gollum creature with the gangly limbs and large eyes? For 500 years the Ring has poisoned his mind. That Elf you just made fun of for crying? She just lost her wizard friend to a Balrog. Put this as your status if you’re against bullying in Middle-Earth.”

Meet George, the Great Dane who is the world’s largest dog. He’s terrified of water and, of course, a gentle, sweet giant.

He’s listed the Guinness Book of World Records as the world’s tallest living dog (43 inches from paw to shoulder, that’s over 3 feet) as well as the tallest dog ever.

Here’s a look at George through the years, along with a photoblog of his various trips. He loves NYC!
