What is the largest dog breed in the world?

The Great Dane. The largest Dane, Shamgret Danzas, stood 42 inches at the shoulder.

I think so too. I saw an Irish Wolfhound at the vet, and he stood about 6 feet tall on his hind legs. He was huuuge. He weighed 180 pounds!

I believe it is either the Saint bernard or the mastiff. Tallest is the irish wolfhound.

the largest is the irish wolfhound.. followed by scottish deerhound, leonberger, great dane and mastiff
