Who's a tall boy? Guinness World Records tallest dog crowned
- Published
A Great Dane from Iowa, in the USA, has been named the world's tallest dog by Guinness World Records.
Kevin is a mega 3ft 2in (96cm) tall when stood on all four paws.
Great Danes are famously very tall dogs - but usually only grow to between 2ft 5in (74cm) and 2ft 9in (84cm) tall.
Kevin's family said the record-winning dog is a "gentle giant".

Kevin's family
Kevin lives with his family and lots of other animals.
His family say his best friend is a Decker Rat Terrier called Tuck.
Decker Rat Terriers are much smaller than Great Danes, and only usually grow to around 1ft 6in (46cm).
He's also friends with the family's four cats, chickens, goats, and horses.
Are Great Danes the biggest dogs ever?
Great Danes are famous for being tall dogs.
The previous world record holder for tallest dog was also a Great Dane, called Zeus.
Great Danes aren't the only tall dogs out there, though.
The Irish Wolfhound is another massive dog, and they can grow up to two feet and eight inches.
On the other end, there's the world's shortest dog - a 3.59in (9.12cm) tall Chihuahua called Pearl.
Guinness World Records says it would take more than ten Pearls stacked on top of each other to reach the height of a Kevin.
