50 Great Danes Who Don’t Understand How BIG They Are (New Pics)

It can sometimes seem like the bigger the dog, the more love it has to give its owner and the world. And while we totally love our smaller canine companions, the gigantic Great Danes are a sight to behold. Friendly, social, and charming, these floppy-eared loveable dogs are considered by some to be the perfect match for families.

Great Danes can grow up to weigh a whopping 175 pounds (79 kilograms) and be up to 32 inches (81 centimeters) tall, so that’s all the proof that you need that they’re huge. But reading facts is one thing—seeing these canines’ size with your own eyes is another. Bored Panda wanted to show you just how fun Great Danes can be, so we’ve put together this wholesome and hilarious list of their antics for you to enjoy.

Upvote your fave photos as you scroll down, and let us know which doggos you’d like to hug the most and why, dear Pandas. By the way, when you’re done petting all the dogs in this list, you’ll find some more photos of gorgeous Great Danes right here. And, if you’re in the mood to look at more dogs that don’t understand how big they are, we invite you to check out this article over here.

Bill Lambert, the Head of Health and Welfare at The Kennel Club, told Bored Panda that every single dog needs regular exercise, with larger dogs usually needing more of it. According to Lambert, Great Danes need more than 2 hours of exercise a day. However, the exact amount depends on the dog’s age: puppies and senior canines will require a lot less movement to avoid over-exercising. Read on for Lambert’s insights into what kind of care Great Danes need and what potential owners should be aware of.
