The 3-foot-5-inch-tall dog — who stood over 7 feet on his
hind legs — had a leg amputated to treat the cancer earlier
this month.

They don’t live very long even without tumors. My sister had a Great Dane that only made it to 7. He was an old dog at 5 (gray muzzle, stiff joints), and his heart just stopped one day while he was asleep.
