We are currently seeking records in the following categories:

TALLEST WOMAN

We are looking high and low in every corner of the globe to fill this coveted title. The search will commence by narrowing down the tallest woman regionally from each country. These frontrunners could ultimately help us confirm Guinness World Records’ Tallest Woman in the world!

The new Tallest Living Woman will join a lofty list of record-holders from the US, UK and China. The most recent record-holder, American Sandy Allen, stood 7 feet 7.25 inches and was crowned the Tallest Living Woman in 1976 and held the record until her passing in 2008. The Tallest Female Ever, Zeng Jinlian of China, stood an imposing 8 feet 1.75 inches tall.

Requirements:
o 2 doctor's statement confirming height, taken at three different times during the day (e.g. morning, noon and evening).
o Photograph
o Minimum requirement is over 7 ft (213 cm)

LONGEST EARS ON A DOG

A popular pet category, the Longest Ears on a Dog, needs a new set of record setting ears! You might remember Tigger, a bloodhound owned by Bryan and Christina Flessner of Illinois, whose 13 ½ inch. ears took the world by storm. Unfortunately, Tigger passed away last Fall and we’re seeking a new dog to fill these very big shoes…or well, actually…ear muffs.

Requirements:
o Vet's statement with measurement from the head (where the ear joins the skull) to the tip of the ear on the underside of the ear in a straight line.  Must include a measurement for both ears!
o Photograph
o Minimum requirement is over 30 cm (11.8 in)

OLDEST LIVING DOG

Always respect your elders! We do. You might remember our previous record holders, Otto, a dachshund from Shrewsbury, UK aged 20 who recently passed away or Chanel, a 21-year-old dachshund from Long Island, NY.

SMALLEST DOG - LENGTH

Our pint size record holders are never overlooked. The current record is held by Heaven Sent Brandy, a female Chihuahua who measures 15.2 cm (6 in) from the nose to the tip of the tail. If your dog is barely the height of a teacup, he/she could possibly go down in record breaking history.

Requirements:
o Vet's statement with measurement from tip of the nose to end of the tailbone (not hair!).
o The dog must be aged 1 or over.
o Photograph
o Current record is held by Heaven Sent Brandy, a female Chihuahua who measured 15.2 cm (6 in)
