Casselton, Oct 8 (THAINDIAN NEWS) The Guinness book record holder longest dog was a 4-foot-tall Great Dane that died this summer. Now a new claimant to the record has come. Boomer who is Caryn Weber’s dog is 7 feet long from nose to tail. She plans to send his measurements to the Guinness to get him listed as the world’s tallest living dog.

Owner Caryn Weber says her 3-year-old Landseer Newfoundland keeps all four paws on the floor when he drinks from the kitchen faucet in her family’s eastern North Dakota farmhouse.

Boomer stares into car windows eye to eye with drivers. A 20-pound bag of dry dog food lasts the 180-pound canine only a couple of weeks.

Weber says her 180-pound, furry black and white dog “comes into the house and his tail is so high everything gets knocked around.”

Weber plans to send her three-year-old Boomer’s measurements to Guinness World Records to get him officially listed as the world’s tallest living dog at 7 foot.
