A dog named Hercules is the World's Biggest Dog Ever According to Guinness World Records.
Hercules was recently awarded the honorable distinction of World's Biggest Dog by Guinness World Records. Hercules is an "Neopolitan Mastiff" who has a 38-inch neck and weighs 282 pounds.
With "paws the size of softballs" (reports the Boston Herald), the three-year-old monster is far larger and heavier than his breed's standard 200lb.limit. Hercules' owner Mr. Flynn says that Hercules weight is natural and not induced by a bizarre diet: "I fed him normal food and he just "grew"... and grew, and grew, and grew...

Irish Wolfhound
They average up to 90 cm (34 inches) at the withers, a fact that sometimes is its biggest disadvantage when attracting owners who have no concern for its special needs. As with all breeds, the ideal and accepted measurements vary somewhat from one standard to another, and there will always be individuals whose size falls outside these standards. However, generally breeders aim for a height averaging 85 to 90 centimeters (33 to 36 inches) in males, 5 to 10 centimeters (2 to 4 inches) less for females. Acceptable weight minimums range from 55 kg (120 lb.) for males and 48 kg (105lb.) for females. Males, however, can weigh up to 180 lbs (82 kg)

The tallest is the Irish Wolfhound. They tend to make the average Dane look short.
The heaviest is the English Mastiff.
The all around 'biggest' breed is the St. Bernard.

Great danes can be tall and huge.
Mastiffs are the heavy, big ones, though not as tall as an Irish Wolfhound or Great Dane.

Either the Black Russian, the Great Dane, or the Presa Canario. It rather depends on what you mean by big; Height, weight or just HUGE in general....
