Man's dog is so big people think he's a LION - and he weighs more than average human - Adomonline.com

A man’s dog is so big that people cross the road when they see him and he claims people often mistake the pup for a pony or a lion.

Jamal Miah adopted Kenzo, a Central Asian Shepherd, after a friend gave him up because the pooch had become too big.

Three-year-old Kenzo is six feet tall when he stands on his hind legs, and weighs a whopping 85 kilos – the average weight of a fully grown man.

Passers-by are often shocked when they see Kenzo with many crossing the street to avoid walking past the huge dog.

Jamal, from East London, said: “We saw him and said ‘oh my God’.

Some people are scared and cross the street when they see him, and others just want to stroke and pet him.

But despite his size, Jamal said Kenzo is “really friendly with dogs and people he knows” and the two have “a really good bond together”.
