...+-154 pounds weighing adult male person sitting on it's back and carry the person further without hassle like 99,99% of the horses and camels do?

If I buy this dog, I won't need a car anymore.

Why would you want to? Anyway as CR already said a St Bernard is the biggest one I have heard of, sometimes used in rescues I think.

I hate to be the bringer of bad news but dogs are not built to carry weight on their backs the way horses are.

Even if you found a dog large enough to hold your weight temporarily, you're almost certain to injure its spine eventually.

You'd be better off getting sled dogs probably. Riding on the back of a dog will more than likely injure the dog.

Or....

Ostrich it will be!

I love that pic!

Not to mention the back hairs would be fun to sit on and pull.

I do hope it doesn't grab one of my eye-balls when I do that.

Must be the reason why the guy in the pic is wearing sunglasses lol.

Well, I image a husky might, but they are more for pulling,
