Frankie puts the BULL into French bulldog

FRANKIE the Frenchie is a big deal.

His owner Danielle Myers says she can't walk him anywhere without being stopped in the street.

Tipping the scales at a whopping 26kg, the five-year-old pooch is a real head-turner. And Frankie's owner Danielle reckons he could be a record-breaker, weighing in at more than any other known large French bulldog across the globe.

Frankie, who lives with his owner in Eccles, Salford, weighs around the same as a small adult deer and is described as 'unnaturally big.

Danielle, 37, remembers the massive mutt being large at just a few months old when she noticed he was 'very long' and had big paws.

But, since then, her furry companion just kept on growing.

Eventually the colossal canine became so big he started attracting attention for his unusual size.
