If you're looking to adopt a dog with a strong work ethic and a heart of gold, we suggest one of the following breeds or breed mixes. The Newfoundland is a giant dog that can weigh up to pounds or pounds as a female.
But make no mistake, a sweet-tempered Newfie is a famously good companion. So, if you have children and a big space, this dog would feel right at home. Truly giant, male Great Danes can reach 30 to 32 inches, while females can get as large as 28 to 30 inches. For comparison, a 5-foot-tall person is 60 inches so a Great Dane is half as tall as the average person. The Leonberger is another gentle giant with a sweet disposition. Both the males and females can weigh as much as a mid-sized human between 90 and pounds at adulthood.
A Leo, as they're called, makes for a great watchdog and all-around worker—plus, they enjoy the companionship of the whole family. The Greater Swiss Mountain Dog is a large, immensely strong worker that has earned its reputation as a hiker's best companion. Their coat in a striking tricolor—black, red, and white is one of their most striking features.
When you think of a big dog, the Mastiff comes to mind. The males can weigh as much as pounds as adults, and the females can also weigh as much as pounds. But these dogs are as courageous and good-natured as they are large: The Mastiff makes a devoted guardian of their families; that said, a natural wariness of strangers makes early training and socialization essential.
Rottweilers are robust dogs with an aloof demeanor to strangers, and this makes them world-class guardians. Train them early with proper socialization and they can harness their territorial instincts in a positive way.
