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.

Snack-sized, according to the dog

I’m loyal to both

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.

Unless your name is Shaggy Rogers, sine ya know he can carry a full sized great dane and run at full fucken sprint.

[–] shasta@lemm.ee 7 points 10 months ago

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

It's that scoliosis. You can't tell how jacked and tall he really is.

[–] Ragdoll_X@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Well that's no problem for him. Certainly takes less than 1% of his power.

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