A US woman believes her 3-year-old Landseer Newfoundland named Boomer, who measures 7 feet long and 3 feet tall at the shoulders and weighs 180 pounds, may be the world's tallest living dog. Boomer is able to look into car windows eye-to-eye with drivers and a 20-pound bag of dog food lasts him a couple weeks. The owner plans to submit Boomer's measurements to Guinness World Records to see if he sets a new record, as the previous tallest dog was a Great Dane that was nearly 4 feet tall.

CASSELTON, N.D. - Measuring 3 feet tall (1 metre) at the shoulders and 7 feet (2.1 metres) long
from nose to destructive wagging tail, he might be the world's tallest living dog.
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 farm house in eastern North Dakota.
Boomer can stare into a car window eye to eye with a driver. A 20-pound (9-kilogram) bag of dry
dog food lasts the 180-pound (81-kilogram) canine a couple of weeks.
Weber says the fluffy black and white dog "comes into the house and his tail is so high everything
gets knocked around."
Weber plans to send Boomer's measurements to Guinness World Records. The previous record
holder was a nearly 4-foot (1.2-meter)-tall Great Dane that died this summer.
