1. Irish Wolfhound

The Irish Wolfhound is a cute and historic dog breed from Ireland. Even though they have an impressive size and presence, don’t judge them by their substantial looks. These adorable puppies inspired many writers in poetry, literature, and even mythology.

Just like all sighthounds, this dog breed is popular for being a great guard dog. Besides that, these pups specialize in protection against wolves, and they’re even used for hunting them.

They might look massive and in charge of the house, but these sweet canines have such great personalities that it’s impossible to consider them territorial, agitated, or aggressive.

2. Bernese Mountain Dog 

Don’t let the Bernese Mountain Dog’s huge size and strength fool you. They might be big, but they’re friendly, cheerful, and very happy pups. And if you think that they’re too big to be friends with children, you’re absolutely wrong.

Given their adorable personality, they love spending time with kids and playing with them all day long. They don’t mind babysitting the family children, and they’re not rowdy or noisy with them either. Trust us, they’re extremely cute and their goofy personalities will make you love them in just a few minutes!

3. Bergamasco Sheepdog

The Bergamasco Sheepdog was a popular pooch among the shepherds and was used to guard their flock of sheep. Nowadays, these intelligent and friendly puppies are popular for their big and fluffy coats and funny personalities.

They might be massive, but they know how to have a good time and how to relax when they feel like it. If you’re looking for a cute dog to chill with you and keep you company when you have a bad day, the Bergamasco Sheepdog is for you!

These adorable creatures enjoy spending time with their families and have a good time learning all sorts of tricks and commands. Even though their big coats might look like they’re very high-maintenance, the funny thing is that they don’t shed and don’t need to be brushed or bathed a lot (aka more than 2 or 3 times a year).

4. The Great Pyrenees

If you want to be the proud owner of a large and strong dog, that also loves to chill with you and be a couch potato, the Great Pyrenees is exactly what you need! These pups are incredibly powerful and they have a large, thick coat that will make you want to cuddle with them all day long.

They were bred to hinder sheep-stealing wolves and other predators on the snowy and high mountaintops. They might look tough, but they’re very sweet, gentle, patient, and relaxed. And let’s not forget the fact that the Great Pyrenees are great companions and devoted guardians to their family and home.
