At 20 months: he's 36" tall, 116 cm long, with a tail a further 2' Mutant alert!

Cant be to the withers

The world record for a great Dane is 43" and an average is considered 34" to 36" I just cant see a pure bred gsd being aa Big as an average great Dane

Echos father is a monster, he is huge but I wouldnt compare him to a great dane in height

If thats a true height to the withers Id be ringing up Guinness now lol

No Tricksta, the 36" was his head not withers as I didn't know how to measure, so I won't be contacting guinness just yet

I posted it earlier; to the withers Remus is 31". But he isn't a purebred GSD - he's crossed with a NI.

It's weird because I forget how big he is - it's only when someone comments it's a reminder!

Echo is pretty big for her age (6months) but she is only 23.5" at the withers lol

Oka is almost 6 months old, she is a NIxGSD. She is about 24" at the withers and weighs 27.6Kg! Put on about 1Kg a week for the past month (1 month ago she was 23.4Kg).
