Mum's beloved dog 'so big' people mistake her for a bear

A mum says her dog is repeatedly confused for a bear because of her size. Charlene Jones says Prescious is so large she had to spend two years researching her breed before taking the plunge.

Prescious, a Tibetan Mastiff, weighs more than an average woman in the UK - around 70kg or 11 stone. She stands at over five foot tall when on her back legs.

Charlene, 38, calls the pooch her "Scouse Lion" and says she is "brilliant" with other people and dogs. Charlene says Prescious is like another child after her daughter left home for university.
