• The dog with the longest ears is called Mr. Jeffries, who is a Basset Hound from West Sussex, England. His ears measured 11.5 inches (29.2 cm) in 2002. He is also the grandson of the famous dog from the Hush Puppies shoe ads, which made the Basset Hound famous. His grandad used to hold the record, but when he died Mr Jeffries took over. His ears are so valuable that his owner has insured them against damage for £30,000. Owner Phil Jeffries says the ears are so long that he often stands on them, trips over them or drags them in his food by accident.
