The Guinness World Records’ record for the largest dog ‘wedding’ ceremony was achieved by 178 dog pairs who sealed their marriage with a bark on the notes of the wedding march at the “Bow Wow Vows event” organised by the Aspen Grove Lifestyle Center in Littleton, United States, on 19 May 2007. The ceremony was unofficial and has no legal value but the participants were issued a complimentary wedding ‘certificate’.
Guinness World Records also recognized the world record for the fastest time for a dog to cover 5 m on its front legs; it is 7.76 sec and was achieved by “Jiff” (USA) at TOPS Kennels, Grayslake, Illinois, USA on 9 September 2013.

“It was very exciting to take a dog from knowing nothing to setting an obedience world record in less than 5 days,” White said.
“It was very difficult to take a dog who knew nothing to having them set an obedience distance world record in less than 5 days. At a distance of over 350 yards, you can barely see the dog, and can barely hear the command.
We were worried that the dog would not be able to hear the command given. It was very exciting to see our hours of training pay off.

“We decided to set this record in order to show people throughout the world that regardless of the obedience issues you are having, your dog can be amazing with proper training, physical stimulation, mental stimulation, and consistency.
