When it comes to adopting a dog, people tend to adopt puppies and small breeds instead of big dogs. It’s because small dogs are cute while huge ones look scary and dangerous. However, anyone who has ever owned a big dog knows that giant dog breeds can make great family friends. Despite their sometimes fearsome appearance, they are cute, friendly, and sweet like small ones. They love kids, protect them, and keep them active. The love and compassion that they give to their humans is like nothing else in the world.
We adore dogs, especially huge ones, so we spent hours collecting photos of them and shared with you. Scroll down to check them out! Looking at these photos, you have to agree with us that big dogs have big hearts and so much love to give us.
