According to a press release from Guinness, Kevin joined the family after they lost their late Great Dane and a friend posted about the last Great Dane of a recent litter who needed a home.
He is named after the character Kevin from the hit 1990 Christmas movie "Home Alone," according to the release.
"He lives like a Kevin!” Wolfe said, recalling the Great Dane grew quickly, “not out, but up!”
Kevin is 'the epitome of a gentle giant'
Despite his size, Tracy Wolfe called Kevin “the epitome of a gentle giant" and said he gets along great with other dogs - even small ones.
Kevin, Wolfe said, can even sometimes be a scaredy-cat.
"He is terrified of the vacuum," she said. "He won't let it come within 6 feet of him! He will jump and run to get away from it.”
Although other dogs are hesitant to be around Kevin at first, Kevin's mom said he soon makes them feel at ease.
"He’s been known to crouch and crawl to make himself appear smaller and less intimidating," Wolfe said.
The 3-year-old dog, owned by Brittany Davis, died in September after developing pneumonia following an amputation and bone cancer diagnosis.
He stood 3 feet, 5.18 inches tall.
As of Thursday, the shortest living dog was a Chihuahua named Pearl, according to Guinness. The tiny pup measures 3.59 inches tall and 5 inches in length − about the size of a dollar bill.
