Best Answer

Everything I've read tells me that the English Mastiff is the largest dog breed in the world. The ones I've seen are bigger than the one or two St Bernards I've seen. We're talking a 300 pound dog here!

Autchully the English mastiff weighs about 290 for males they can but the minimum is about 267 pounds The st.benard wouldn't fight the English mastiff because the St.benard has to be in a cold cliement but if they didnt the mastiff would win because it outweighs it and it is the biggest house-outside dog in the world other than the codiac or bear or black bear or anything else the English mastiff and stbenard are biger than even the Hyeana.

They are so similar to one another that if you bred them together the puppies would look like purebred mastiffs (as the color and coat are dominant in the mastiff). The behavior would be indistinguishable, as well. These are very, very similar breeds in temperament and intelligence, so you can just pick the one you like best for color, coat, or proximity of a good breeder. If you want a long haired dog, you need to go with the Saint.

If by bigger you mean larger then no. A fully grown male St Bernard can clock in at over 250 pounds while a Great Dane rarely exceeds 200 pounds. Although in terms of height, the Great Dane wins at an impressive 30 inches for males, 28 inches for females.

Males being a minimum of 150 pounds though it is not rare for them to hit 250, with a recognized record holder who reached an astonishing 343 pounds.Danes are taller, but st Bernhards are heavier.

What is bigger the rottweiler or dalmatian?

I may say that the "English Mastiff" is the only domesticated dog that's bigger than a "Rottweiler". I am pretty sure that if the Rottweiler and the English Mastiff fought, of course the English Mastiff will win because English Mastiff's are heavy and if the English Mastiff fought the Rottweiler, I am sure that the English Mastiff with squish the Rottweiler to death.
