Despite their tall stature, these dogs are considered to be a gentle breed that often tries to cuddle in their owners laps or on the same type of furniture they are sitting on — such as a couch or chair. Bored Panda compiled a hilarious grouping of pictures shared by Great Dane owners of their dogs seeming unaware of their large size. Whether they were hanging out with another deer or contorting their bodies into crazy shapes, these dogs show how their great size means a whole lot more to love.
