Although many people prefer smaller dogs, if you have a large home and property, you may want to consider adopting a larger dog breed.

Great Danes are one of the largest dog breeds. The world record for the largest dog actually goes to this breed. They commonly weight over 100 pounds, but are gentle giants, and can be great fun for small children who would like a ride!

The Saint Bernard is a huge dog with a warm personality. Originally bred to rescue travelers in the Alps, these dogs have big, fluffy coats that need regular grooming.

Mastiffs are also a great choice if you’re looking for a larger dog. However, having a Mastiff around means you will spend a lot of time cleaning up doggy drool!
