Chonky dog turned into Google Maps landmark

This dog is so big, she’s on Google Maps.

A chonky dog named Watermelon has become such a sensation in Georgia that she’s been immortalized as a local landmark on Google Maps.

Since her “land-bark” status, the plus-sized pup has received over 80 five-star reviews on the site with admirers praising the “chunky old girl.”

Indeed typing in “Watermelon Dog Georgia” in Google Maps will bring up a map of Tbilisi, where the well-marbled mutt is shown as a location titled “Watermelon Dog.” Her address is 13 Amaghleba Street, across from a bank and a liquor store.

Watermelon, who takes her name from her rotund shape, was supposedly made an official site due to her penchant for sitting in one spot all day awaiting treats from tourists, the Mirror reported.

According to Twitter fans, the supersized stray — also known as “sweet bun” — was cared for by an old lady during COVID lockdown, but now resides in a cardboard box the woman built for her, Bored Panda reported.

She even boasts a green tag, designating that she’s homeless but harmless (which some hilariously mistook for a Tripadvisor sticker, per Bored Panda).

Despite her wag-abond status, Watermelon hasn’t exactly been starving — mainly due to the throngs of tourists clamoring to feed her.

In fact, visitors can even buy Watermelon a can of dog food from a nearby shopkeeper, who has been caring for the chonky girl since she made Amagleba Street home, per the Mirror.

However, he’s asked fans to keep treats to a minimum due to her ailing health.

"My life will not be complete until I pet the watermelon puppy …" gushed a paw-struck fan on Google Maps.

Much like a beloved restaurant or tourist site, the chunky canine has received overwhelmingly paws-itive reviews on Google Maps.

“She looks nice, and deserves scritches,” gushed another fan, while a third wrote, “Great pupper! Totally 5 stars!”

“My life will not be complete until I pet the watermelon puppy …” said another, throwing sweet bun a digital bone.
