    Your all wrong, lol.

    The Rottweiler does NOT have the strongest jaw/bite force. Your all saying that because of the stupid

    National Geographic test they did. The Rottweiler has the strongest Jaws between the Rottweiler, German Shepherd, and American Pit Bull Terrier.

    Thats It! Those were the only three breeds tested. For example, The American Bulldog was never tested. The English Mastiff

    Was never tested either. Both of those breeds have stronger jaws then even the biggest Rottweiler.

    Now about the Heaviest. English Mastiff's are the heaviest at - 160 - 290 pounds.

    About the tallest. Again you are all wrong. The Irish Wolfhound is NOT the tallest breed.

    The Irish Wolfhound is the tallest AKC registered breed. The Bully Kutta alone is taller then any AKC registered breed.

    The Bully Kutta stands taller then 40 inches at the shoulder on average. Now don't go saying, "Oh well, Gibson

    the Great Dane is only 42.2 inches tall and is the tallest dog" Because, again that would be wrong. Gibson is the tallest AKC registered

    dog. Bully Kutta's are not AKC Registered. And if were going to go by AKC standards then Yes, the Irish Wolfhound is the tallest THEN

    The English Mastiff and Great Dane equally second.

    Thats cute: I got a thumbs down because of my intelligence.

    Heaviest Dog Breeds

  • 1 decade ago

    Irish Wolfhound is the tallest breed ( currently the tallest dog is a Great Dane in England )- the heaviest breed is the Mastiff`but I'm not sure which type.

  • 1 decade ago

    tallest breed Irish worlfhound (although Gibson the Great Dane is currently the tallest dog--he stands @ 3.5 ft at his shoulder) typically the Irish wolf hound stands about 35"

    heaviest breed Old English Mastiff while they typically weigh between 160-230lbs, they have been known to weigh well over 300lbs

    As for jaw strength, there is no completely accurate test for that any large working dog is going to have exceptional jaw strength

    I don't know the tallest, but I think the heaviest is a Bull Mastiff. And I don't know about the pit bull thing either..

    Hi, I understand that you are looking for some advice or resources to help fully train your dog or fix behavior problems. If a professional dog trainer is not an option at this time, or if you want to trt training your dog on your own (a great way to bond), I'd suggest you https://biturl.im/aUBmt

    A friend recommened it to me a few years ago, and I was amazed how quickly it worked, which is why I recommend it to others. The dog training academy also has as an excellent home training course.

    Talllest would be an Irish Wolf Hound, heaviest would be either a Rott or a Newfie.

    Pit Bull is out jawed by Rhodesian Ridgeback.

    Tallest is the Irish Wolfhound.

    The strongest bite is the Rottweiler.

    Mastiff, Irish Wolfhound.

    All you need to know is that all dog breeds hurt like hell when they hit a sleeve and mean it. ;-)
