My Mission

Dog Lover & Proud Pet Parent


Passionate when it comes to my canine companions as well as dogs everywhere, it's my mission to raise awareness of any issues that affect them, from their health, food and nutrition and training to their welfare. Canine advocacy is something that everyone who cares about dogs needs to be aware of and we all need to share that and raise our voice for those who cannot speak for themselves.

‘Tiny’ Not So Tiny! Another HUGE Dog!!

Tiny Yesterday I did a story on Samson – Now this is one HUGE dog! Now here’s Tiny who tops out at 7′3″ on his hind legs, 8″ taller than Samson! He weighs in at about100 kg or just under 240 lb.

Tiny is pure Great Dane and towers over his 6′1″ owner, Iain Newby.

Mr Newby, 40, said: ‘I’ve never seen a bigger dog than Tiny. He’s got 40in legs. I’m a 32in leg. He’s bigger than some horses in the fields we walk past.

‘It’s funny when we are out walking and someone turns round, and almost jumps out of their skin.

I get some funny looks when I’m calling him back to me, people look as if to say, ‘Tiny?’

‘We used to have a dining room but now we have a Tiny room. He sleeps on a sofa.’

Tiny, found at a rescue centre, lives with Mr Newby, wife Lisa, 34, and sons Jack, three, Harry, two, and one-year-old Bryce in Great Wakering, Essex.

They have four other dogs and a range of exotic animals, all rescued. (Metro)
