Giant Dog Breeds
Giant dog breeds typically stand 26+ inches at the shoulder and/or weigh 100+ pounds. Some of the breeds on this page are also listed on the Large Dog Breeds page, because some individuals are large while others are giant.
Positives and negatives, pros and cons, good and bad traits, of giant dog breeds. Each review is based on my own personal experiences and extensive research. I'm Michele Welton – breed selection consultant, obedience instructor, and published author of 15 dog books.
