I was a believer until I went to Urban Legands..thank goodness they have a site to check these things out..darnit.
The photograph states Hercules weighs 282 pounds… common sense should tell anyone by looking at the picture that a dog as a big as a horse will DEFINITELY weigh more than 282 pounds… gimme a break.
One more thing… the shadow to the left of this dog in the picture… obviously does not belong to this “massive-sized” dog.
Logn is wrong! this is a real live dog!!!!
DUh it is so obviously photoshopped!
Hallo Big Dog is that English Mastiff or Dogo Bordeaux or Neo Politan Mastiff or what ? But I try to believe please compare with Hercules the Brindle Mastiff that registered by Guiness Book OF Record…., please give another pictures of this Dog from another sides, left right and closest distance. Thank you. Trigon
You can tell by just looking at this photo that it is fake. Come on – these stupid photos are getting out of hand!!!!!
went to guinness on line….no BIGGEST DOG catagory!!!duh just goes to SHOW ya, you can’t always believe what you see…..
Gee i wonder how this slipped through all the big news networks, you just know its not real,funny ,but not real
I have a Caine Corso which is an (Italian Mastiff) 4yrs old weighing close to 140 and a natural diet from Puppy Chow To now Dog Chow. Somewhat the same breed and I never was a believer, cause I always go to Urban Legend. about.com before I even think about it. But you must say it was a good one.
on searching the official site
http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com
no such record / info was found
so looks like such a dog never was
…SHOPPED
…Looks like the guy got a piece of his hip shot off
the website included here shows a rear shot of this photo and you can see the dog is smaller and it would seem to match the shadow better from this angle.
http://www.blufftontoday.com/node/13713
That’s obviously two dwarfs and a Shetland pony
The dog is an actual dog. Alive and well. The picture did not take place. It was a well appointed design probably done on Photoshop. Shadows are consistant with the sunlight in the picture. The horse could be a young buck. Can’t compare weight vs. size.
I’m not saying it’s real, but I haven’t seen any solid evidence that it isn’t, on snopes or elsewhere. They point out that that’s not hercules, but if it’s a fake, it’s a good one. The shadows are right, and it was done from at least two angles, which is more trouble than your usual ‘shopper goes to. I’m sure the truth will out soon, though, since it’s getting so much buzz.
Of course it is fake. The shadow doesn’t match, and where is the rest of the body, I have had many dogs in my life, and from that angle you usually can see the legs in the back… where are Hercules rear legs?
Unless the dog is running (which I would doubt by the passive pose of the owner) the shape is just.. odd.. don’t you think? BTW this is just my opinion.
Lain
this is obviously fake and to those who went to Guinness, they don’t publish the whole book online (or there wouldn’t be any reason for you to buy it would there?)
Case Closed People!
I am an owner of 3 English Mastiffs. Females are much smaller, usually weighing in the 120-140 range, we have two males, one weighing in at 200lbs and the other is still actually a puppy at only one and a half years old he weighs near the 250 mark. With a neck measuring 29.5 inches. In fact we are getting a collar special made because you can’t find them that big in stores. Mastiffs are expected to grow for 2 years (at an enormously fast rate) then fill out for a year after that. So, with my own personal experience, I don’t doubt the dog exists and the weight is accurate, BUT even at this weight he would not be that tall, unless the people are extremely short and the horse is a small small horse. And, the leash issue, these dogs are very gentle…referred to commonly as the gentle giant, and want to more than anything be next to their owners, so it would not be unbeleivable that this dog doesn’t even need the leash
Urban legends are urban legends for a reason. They are there to help people think something else when they don’t want to believe what they see. An different explanation for something. Doesn’t mean they urban legends are true.
The weight is pretty accurate, it’s a pretty fit dog!
I’m not sure what some of you people are looking at, but from where the sun is shining, the shadows are casting just fine.
Also, who knows the exact name of the photoshop program that can do all this stuff to make it look so real? I mean, unless you work for some movie studio where they use special effects to create these types of things.
Yes, guinness is online but it’s not always going to be updated. and I agree with whoever said that it wouldn’t all be on there anyway or there wouldn’t be a reason to buy it.
I’m sure there is a biggest dog category in the guinnes, there are all sorts of weird categories, like the longest fingernails or the longest hair, or the biggest fruit.
In the rear shot at that one website, if you look closely and compare both pictures, the height of everything, the dog isn’t much smaller. He may seem that way because his back end is much thinner and smaller than his front end. the horse seems taller but that is because of the way horse’s backs arch.
and owners put leashes on their dogs, gentle or not, so they don’t see something interesting and run after it, it might get lost. not that you could lose a dog that size! but I don’t think it’s a bad thing or a ridiculous thing either way to have a leash on the dog. That’s what dog owners do.
of course, i’ll believe it when i see them on tv or whatever!
The dog is real. I road it one time in a horse race… we won!!!! For our prize we ate second place.
The people in the picture don’t even have a shadow. And do you know how much that dog would weigh if it were real??? A heck of a lot more than 282 lbs.!!!
I saw this dog as a pup in a Thai-styled pit match at the state fair in southern Atlanta against a crocodile. THE DOG IS REAL!!! The reason that only ways 282 is because it lost it’s back right leg in the match. It’s current leg is a cleverly desguised prosthetic made of balsa wood. Another little known fact is that the dog is a hybrid .It’s father was a liger and as a result it (not a he or she, it’s a hemorphodite)cannot reproduce.
Sorry for the spelling mistakes, but the story is 100% true.
I too have seen this dog boarding a plane in Naples,Fl. They had to board him on special type plane that the nose opens and in a horse caring cage, I was on my way to Iraq and yes he does have a leg missing, did not know about crocodile incident.
I owned a 250 pound Neopolitan Mastiff, we did saddle him and yes the kids rode him around the yard. He was no where near the size of a full grown horse or even a 6 month old colt. Another legend… I must say however the photoshop job is nice, shadows are of course off…
Anywho
I had me some of that Neopolitan, I preferd the Strawberry meat.
You think that guy is huge, you should see the world’s smallest, I think he goes by Herculess
It’s on CNN website that I tend to believe more than this site.
I saw this on the CNN website…this is from 2001. Whether the picture is fake or not, this dog IS real!

World’s Largest Dog Weighs 284

THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED.
MILES O’BRIEN, CNN ANCHOR: They say dog owners and their — dogs and their owners, I should say, often look alike. Here is a case in point, a 270-pound Massachusetts man owns a mastiff that outweighs him.
Eileen Curran of CNN affiliate WBZ looks at the pooch who eats by the bucketful.
(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)
EILEEN CURRAN, WBZ REPORTER (voice-over): When John Flynn of Peabody walks his dog, cars slow down and heads turn. Flynn’s a big guy, his dog, Hercules, even bigger.
JOHN FLYNN, DOG OWNER: I weigh probably 270.
CURRAN (on camera): So your dog weighs more than you.
FLYNN: Yes, yes, he does. Yes.
CURRAN (voice-over): At last check this 3-year-old English mastiff tipped the scales at 284 pounds. Hercules came to the attention of the “Guinness Book of World Records” thanks to a 9-year- old friend of the family, David Delauri. David was flipping through his edition of the book when he saw a dog that looked like Hercules.
DAVID DELAURI, FAMILY FRIEND: And then I came to this page and I was, like, oh, I thought, Wendy’s dog was the biggest dog in America.
CURRAN: The mastiff in the book weighed 286 pounds and was the heaviest living dog. Flynn called the Guinness people and learned the dog had died. And after submitting documentation, he was told Hercules now qualified as the heaviest living dog.
(on camera): So what do you feed a 280-plus-pound dog? Some might say, anything he wants. But actually John feeds Hercules about a pound of dry dog food a day, and this is his dog dish.
(voice-over): The vet says Hercules is healthy but shouldn’t gain any more weight. Flynn says he’ll walk him more often and just try to avoid causing traffic jams.
(END VIDEOTAPE)

YALL ARE DUMB…THE DOG IS REAL
The photo may or may not have been altered a bit, but the biggest dog I have ever seen myself was also an English Mastiff…I almost shit myself when I saw him as a was coming out of the grocery store a few years back (he was tied up). His head and sloppy jowls alone were bigger than the size of a friggin’ Alaskan Kodiak Bear! He was very friendly however, and I waited for the owner to come out and guess what the dog’s name was? “BEAR”! By the way, the horse is obviously a blueblood Arabian and they are not very big horses, usually 14.5 to 15.5 hands…I know from personal experience, breeding and ownership.
Oh, by the way…even the smallest Arabian horse weighs in at the very LEAST 800 lbs…I think the photo of the dog is exaggerated, because he would weigh a LOT more if his size were comparative to the horse in the photo. I’m sure that he is still a monster dog though.
What the hell is Wade smokin’?
Would you guys shutup
and the sun was high when the photo was taken so Cindy you are wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The story is real. The picture is fake. I found a picture of the real Hercules here:
http://dogsinthenews.com/stories/070415a.php
Hercules is dead.
He was trampled to death by a Bull Moose in Sascatchuan, Canada this weekend while accompanying the Survivorman guy. Hercules was born in 1963. He will be missed. He is survived by two bitches, 56 sons, 38 daughters and a couple of mutts.
The episode will be shown on the Discovery Channel on July 17th.
Why would there be an identical picture of the scene from both the front and the back….who does that? Doesn’t the existence of a “rear” shot make it suspect?
As an expert in photoshop I can tell you it’s photoshopped. For instance in the frontal image the shadow is showing to the left of the image. In the rear shot the same thing (opposite) . Nice try though. Also My uncle Miles owns a BIG neopolitan mastiff and although HUGE (Named Master of course) It’s no where near that big. Fake 100% fake. Nice try though.
Qoute: Brain” For instance in the frontal image the shadow is showing to the left of the image. In the rear shot the same thing (opposite) .”
If you notice they have turned around and went back the way they came. The shadow directions would be correct in this case.
Chris you’re absolutely right. Brian – you’re not much of a Photoshop expert. For everyone else, stop using the shadows as your proof. The shadows related to the mass and height relative to all four is proportion to sun’s shadow on the ground. If there is proof the dog / story is a fake, I love to see it.
Here is another picture of the couple
Try this:
http://urbanlegends.about.com/b/a/256521.htm
Ok so i’m blur.
http://www.blufftontoday.com/node/14078
OMG, I can’t believe you people are debating this! The image has clearly been digitally manipulated. Look at the guy’s right hip (left side in the image). Oops, the editor goofed there by accidentally cloning a sunny piece of grass from somewhere else in the image. This is an errant manipulation that the editor never meant to make… and proof positive #1 of digital manipulation.
For the record, I do digital image manipulation on my home computer all the time using various tools including PhotoShop. It’s very easy to select the image of the dog (and his shadow) and resize it. Then by scaling up the image it will block out most of the original. Then you would over paint any obvious glitches with grass or other background pixels from somewhere else in the image and touch up the shadows. Glen and Chris, you’re absolutely right that Brian has no idea what he’s talking about. The shadows are damn near perfect.
In addition to the hip issue, however, the top of the dog’s left ear (right side of image) was not blended properly (blurred) into the background. This is known as a sharp delineation which would not exist in this part of the image if it were real. This is proof positive #2 that the image was digitally altered.
I have no doubt that the dog exists, that they did indeed walk in that field together but the dog was scaled up (about 33% by my estimate). If you look at the real Hercules (http://www.snopes.com/photos/animals/hercules.asp) who was once in the Guinness Book of World Records as the Biggest Dog (actually “Heaviest” is more accurate) you will see that at 282 lbs, the Neapolitan Mastiff in the image in question would be about 25-30% smaller than he appears.
the real dog. here
pay attention people.
the fake pic.. his hip is missing.
my whole entire History class and teacher were stuck on this.
read all the entries. seriously..
the pic is fake. the dog is real.
I agree with Mike, I’ve worked with photoshop a LITTLE bit, and I certainly don’t claim to be an “expert” at it but it really doesn’t take someone who has even heard of photoshop to see that the hip smudge is an alteration. I compared both images (front and back)side by side and the picture is taken from ALMOST the same spot(you can tell by one small area across the road that could be a small grave yard). And there is something fishy about the dog’s left ear, or right below it. This site says that THIS is the John Flynn, http://dogsinthenews.com/stories/070415a.php in the interview above sent by Candy, Flynn says, “I weigh probably 270.” The person in this picture does NOT weigh 270, probably not even 200. He’s about my size I’m guessing and I weigh like 180. There’s no way that the person in that picture weighs 270. So, yeah, I’d say that someone took a true story and applied it to this picture and then altered it. Not that any of this really matters….
By the way, I failed to mention an observation: In the frontal photo, the guy is “holding” a nice bundle of leash that hangs a good bit, and if you’ll notice in the rear photo, his right hand looks like it’s not even holding anything, and there’s certainly nothing hanging down like that leash in the front photo. I guess it’s possible that he could be holding something, but it sure looks like his hand is hanging free. ALSO, if you look at the dog’s front right paw, he’s lifting his leg so it reveals his right hind paw, but then you can’t see the leg attached to it, it SHOULD be right above where the front paw curves inward.
Comments: I urge anyone who thinks this photograph is real — or even might be real — to visit a psychiatrist. Right away. Thanks to Photoshop, the dog pictured here (which appears to be a Neapolitan mastiff, not an English mastiff as claimed) is roughly twice its natural size.
Back in 2001, Joe Flynn, the owner of a 282-pound English mastiff named Hercules (see photo), was indeed told by a representative of Guinness World Records that he had the world’s largest dog. This is not that animal.
I see he is handi-capped(Lol) No hind-legs, where’d they go?, No shade or shadow of him amongst the sun, Why’s this?I can send you a pik of a real pik of a large mastiff, for real, no hoax!
Cidy, you are wrong. If you had any common sensem, you would know that a dog has a VERy different structure as a horse, therefore making it weigh much much less. This comming from a thriteen your old. (me) Even someone as young as me woudl know that. Besides, the world records books investigate these things quite well. Obviously if they havent seen proof they wouldnt put it in a book.
You can tell this is fake why would you have a huge dog on a little leash
awww man this photo sucks and blows!
this one’s a better picture. it looks much less like a fake. it’s closer up, less blurry, the dog is up against the guy and the pose still looks natural. i believe it.
http://www.blufftontoday.com/node/14078
beautiful dog, really!
I think it is real because I found 3 photos of the same dog and its owner. I wish I could have been there to see the photo taken. Heck I wish I owned the dog and horse!!
the dogs not an english mastiff, absolutely 100% neapolitan mastiff!!
http://www.melaflux.com/images/misc/Hercules_BullShit.jpg
check out d image nd find out if it’s true or not nd neways dis pic is a hoax bcuz d dog in d photo is a neapolitan mastiff whereas hercules is an ENGLISH MASTIFF
We own a small, 170lb female English Mastiff so I believe this is possible. Sadly this might be a result of a tumor or growth on the pituitary gland. I hope the owner has that checked.
Fake dog real story
At least half of you are all IDIOTS!!!! Especially you morons who are saying you OWN ENGLISH MASTIFFS AND STILL BELIEVE THIS IS REAL!!! THE PIC IS A NEAPOLITAN MASTIFF NOT AN ENGLISH MASTIFF!!!! SCREW THE SHADOWS….IF YOU ZOOM YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE, ABOVE THE DOGS RIGHT FRONT FOOT, THE HOOF OF THE PONY IT WAS SUPERIMPOSED ON!!! OH AND HERE’S A BIGGIE THE REAL HERCULES HAS EARS (as all ENGLISH mastiffs do, and Neapolitan mastiff’s have their ears clipped as pups). THE DOG IN THIS PIC DOES NOT HAVE EARS!! ALSO ENGLISH MASTIFFS ARE FAWN AND BLACK (LIKE THE REAL ONE) THIS NEAPOLITAN IS BRINDLE!!! I SWEAR YOU PEOPLE KILL ME!!!!YOU’LL BELIEVE ANYTHING!!!!!!!!! AND THE PIC FROM THE BACK????? ARE YOU KIDDING ME???? THAT IS CLEARLY A FREAKIN PONY AND THEY TRIED TO MAKE THE TAIL INTO A DOG TAIL! WONDERING WHY HIS LEGS LOOK ODD????? COMPARE THEM TO THE HORSE ON THE RIGHT AND YOU’LL SEE THAT THE JOINTS MATCH WITH THE DOGS!!!! DON’T BE SO STUPID!!!!
Wow! If you all were suckered in to believing that we had some prehistoric monster of a dog running around shame on you……
http://www.blufftontoday.com/files/images/BIG3mic.preview.jpg
why are the shadows in the background going in opposite way of the dog.
for any of those people who think its wrong because it has no back legs are wrong here is a bigger picture where you can clearly see the back legs Click Here to see the bigger picture
Also i found this other picture that looks very real, a good close up of hercules Click Here to see the bigger picture
I do sort of think its real except if it was you would think there would be more pictures of it. would it have lived its whole life without being seen, if it was seen somebody else would have taken a photo of it, i certainly would take a photo if i saw a dog that big.
yes, I believe the above picture is actual.I’ve a similar one.
OH MY GOSH some of you people are really pathetic instead of wasting your life talking about a dog that may or may not be bigger than a horse is sad get a job or a date or a friend the point is GET A LIFE the way you spend your time by talking about a dog named hercules really shows how many friends you have
Actually, that dog IS very likely to be real. I used to work in a timber yard in Sydney, Australia and we had a guard dog who weighed 95kg (well over 200 pounds) and was a Mastiff cross Rottweiler. He was HUGE, and proportionally about right compared to Hercules when you consider weight. In regard to the lead, when he was off the lead he was crazy, but when a leash was put on him he became very placid.
Be as skeptical as you want, but I’ve personally seen a dog that was 4/5ths the size of this one.
If you look on the web there are actual big dogs. Just cuz you go by the Guniess book of records online this does not represent all of the site just a portion. You all who dont believe its real, I wanted to ask when did you become inspector gadget?
cool big dog its o most as tall as that horse
the photo is real I’ve seen the dog with my both eyes
So they claim it is an english mastiff but anyone who know a little bit about dogs can clearly see that this is a neopolitan mastiff. So this has to be a lie. And a bad one since they can´t tell one breed from another.
Hercules is actually a real dog weighs 282 as a 38 inch neck, I’m friends with a kid named david delauri and he and i actually were looknig through the guiness books and we said we thought hercules was the biggest dog in america so we weighed him. the only thing fake abotu this story is the picture of the dog next to the horse. hercules isn’t black hes a yellowish color.
The Truth:
Hercules, the massive English Mastiff, was real but his time in the limelight was in 2001 when he was the Guinness world record for the World’s Largest Dog. For some reason the story began circulating widely on the Internet in March, 2007, and was accompanied by a picture of an enormous dog being walked near a horse. That picture is not of Hercules because it’s a Neapolitan mastiff and Hercules is an English mastiff. Also, the picture appears to be fabricated. The dog is about half the size of the horse and an average horse is around 1,000 pounds.
The real Hercules was owned by John Flynn of Peabody, Massachusetts. In an interview with WBZ television in Boston in June, 2001, he commented that he weighed 270 pounds so his dog weighed more than he did. It was a comment by a 9-year old friend of his that led to the Guinness world record. The friend, David Delauri, was thumbing through the Guinness Book of World Records and commented that there was a dog in there that looked like Hercules. It turned out to be a 296-pound mastiff but that had died and after submitting veterinary records to the folks at Guinness, Hercules became the heaviest. There are other categories for the tallest such as Geat Danes and Irish Woulfhounds
I agree about the shadow all other shadows, horse and humans run way towards the left of the photo indicating that the light source is lower on the horizen. The shadow of the dog on the otherhand projects slightly towards the left, indicating a higher light source. Bottom line the SUN was lower on the horizen when the photo of horse and humans was taken and the sun was higher on the horizen (probable around 1pm) the photo is a FAKE. P.S. the largest dog weight wise was ZORBA an English Mastiff at over 300lbs.
First of all, the “dog” shown in this picture is a Neapolitan Mastiff, not an English Mastiff which is even bigger. The AKC standard says males should be 26 to 31 inches tall…not 45 inches tall. And if so, the dog would probably weigh about 350 pounds, not 282. Photoshop is great, though…
the picture is wrong the dog was a different type of mastiff need proof check ou tthis site. http://www.truthorfiction.com/rumors/h/hercules.htm
For a picture of Hercules go to
“http://dogsinthenews.com/stories/070415a.php”
The dog is much smaller (shorter) then the touched up photo copy dog and like most biggest (heaviest) dogs he is also incredibly fat (obese), but he is probably a very big/tall and overweight dog. I remember Redd Fox had a St. Bernard on Johnny Carson once that weighed 260lbs.
and there??
its fake cuse shadow leash hip and u would see tons of people looking at them if they where in a public park
you guys are so ignorant. its a big coincidence that yesteday i was at office max and there was a lady waiting in line behind us with her dog, and her dog was HUGE! it was as big as teh shopping cart, and she said it was only 2 years old and weighed around 150 or somethign i dont remember, AND THE DOG WAS BIGGER THEN HER! she was kinda skinny and short too!!! that picture might be fake but THIS ISREAL so its very possible!!!!!
Look at the other photo of this group at http://www.blufftontoday.com/node/14078 The story may or may not be true, but this dog is
That dog is real soooooooooooooooooooo donttttttttttt belive what the other people say about the dog cause theire just jellus that they dont have a dog like yourse.And dont belive Cindy because she is a dummy. She is my friend.
im a graphic designer and mastiff owner
i work in photohop 10 hours a day

ACCTUALLY its 100% photo shoped and fake because the tllest dog ever is a harlequin great Dane and is only 42.2 inches tall its in the URL above from the OFFICIAL guinness world records web site
SOMETHING IS WRONG ABOUT THIS PICTURE.THATS A NAPOLITANE MASTIFF,NOT ENGLISH AND IT LOOKS 200KILOS(440)POUNDS
The author does not claim that he Knows it’s a fake, just that he Believes 100% that it is a fake.
He leaves room for authentication at a later date.
Jim Furr >
well lookin at that pic u can tell that that horse is a lil small for a normal sized horse i worked on a farm for a few yrs n the horse that were thier were alot bigger…but as the dog goes my english mastive rellik is 268 pounds n is 31 inch neck n he is pretty huge so this pic is believable except for the guiniess book n the dog hercles cuz i reserhed it n hercles is tan n not brindle like the 1 in the pick
Oh, please. If that photo of ‘Hercules’ was real, we’d see millions more photos of Hercules all over the place. There is no dog that size. The photo is a fake.
well. when i first saw it the first time. i didnt find anything that was strange with it. the average man is 1.78m and the biggest ever was, was 2,72m i know there is extreme cases of these things. but then i noticed the shaddow of the dog. i find it very strange that the horse, man and the woman have such long shaddows, because the dog surtenly dont…
Anyone who believes this to be a real dog needs to pray for a brain.
this is not a dog its a horse
you who believe this guys, and this guy take one little spec and call the picture fake..
1. guiness people actually do more then look at a picture, they verify. so that in itself makes you retards for believing that it’s fake
2. take a look at a dif. pic of the dog and explain it away too. God nothing worse then mass retardation.
