20 adorable dogs with zero concept of their enormous size

Just as people seem to click with certain other people, so are different humans drawn to particular dog breeds. From the minis to the massive, there is a dog breed out there for everyone. More than just their size or the markings of their coat, though, it is often their personalities and particular “tendencies” that makes people fall in love with them.

For the big dog lovers out there, every one of them can tell you that large breeds tend to think that they’re actually small. They love to climb all over you and believe there’s no such thing as “personal space”. Here are 20 photos of dogs that have no idea how insanely BIG they are.

There’s an old saying that love hurts, and his picture proves it. Sure, a dog won’t deceive you or emotionally torment you, but they do love to snuggle up on you whenever they feel like it. Nothing wrong with that, but they do bring their paws and claws, and sometimes they can forget their humongous size.

7. The more things change, the more they stay the same

This is Otis and, believe it or not, he is still just a young puppy. He is only 7-months-old in this picture and already weighs 90 pounds! None of that has been enough to convince him that he is too big to be in mom’s lap though.

If there is one thing that’s certain about large dogs, it’s that their hearts are as big as their body. No matter how huge they grow, they still want to be right in their human’s lap… no matter how small that lap might be.

18. Clearly, he doesn’t think he’s that big

Reddit Source: Reddit

It’s as if his face is saying “what?! I still fits!!” We don’t know if “fits” is really the right word, but that’s okay doggie. Based on the cozy blanket and the look on your human’s face, she doesn’t seem to mind a bit.

19. Gimme a hug

Just for reference, the man in the photo is 6’3″. The gorgeous giant just loves to give lap hugs though and doesn’t mind if she outweighs her friends or even if she towers over them. Just so long as they don’t let go, she is a happy camper.
