    I’m 6’6", I’ve always wanted a dog that could put its paws on my shoulders and look me in the eye.

    That dog looks like it could do that!

      I’m pretty sure that dog could carry you around in between its paw pads and completely forget you’re there.

      First thing you want to teach Great Dane is not to jump on you. They are big and heavy dogs who don’t realize they are big and heavy. Add playfulness to that and it’s a recipe for hurt.

          Yeah but you can tell his dog is still heavy because when he starts running, it takes like 5 steps in place before he actually moves

      Great Danes can definitely do that. They are couch potatoes who unfortunately have short lives.
