Huge dog is reluctant media star
At 6ft 5ins (1.96m) on his hind legs, Samson must be the perfect guard dog.
But to his owners, Julie and Ray Woods, of Boston, Lincolnshire, the three-year-old Great Dane-Newfoundland cross is simply a much-loved pet.
Samson - who weighs in at 19st 10lb (125kg) - is being billed as “Britain’s biggest dog” after scrap merchant staff who weighed him contacted the media.
