The first time I saw one of those was in person, and also the weirdest place. Was installing internet for a small business and they had a California king size bed in an office right behind the reception desk and this giant fucking dog was taking up the entire bed.

I hella want one so my huge ass could ride a dog like a horse. They are that big.

For anyone considering getting one: sadly the bigger the dog is, the shorter the lifespan usually. Irish wolfhounds are already old at around 6 years. Just be prepared

TBH I kind of like small dogs. If trained with proper strictness and authority they're just as likely to attack babies and small animals as a big dog but far less capable of doing harm. I wouldn't trust dogs with their own litters, I barely trust people to be rational so I would never expect a dog to just "be good."

Nobody should. They need to be taught what is good and bad just like a person. If you want a pet that can basically care for itself, get a cat.
