Reasons to Pet a Big Dog

They are protectors.

Really, what will a Pomeranian protect you from?

You can share your clothes with them.

No need to buy dog clothes when your trench coat or winter hat fit your dog perfectly.

The bigger the dog, the smaller you look.

Forget vertical stripes and all black—your dog is the solution to all your slimming needs.

They will force you to exercise.

Just try keeping up with a big dog on a morning run or walk. You will always get tired before the dog does.

They love to cuddle.

You can cuddle with any dog, but can lap dogs ever be the big spoon?

Big dog means big heart.

Their hearts are literally larger than those of small dogs

Big dogs are great at breaking the ice.

Step One: Bring your giant dog on a downtown walk.

Step Two: The dog will attract.

Step Three: Get dates

Large dogs are easily mistaken for bears.

I may live in the United States, in an area where temperatures reach 103 degrees fahrenheit, but that doesn't deter people from swearing my dog (pictured above) is a polar bear. And you may be surprised by how many people think it's insanely cool to own a bear.

They are the life of the party.

When your friends start coming to your house or apartment more often, they are coming to see your dogs, not you.

They are majestic.

Large dogs, especially the fluffiest like Great Pyrenees and St. Bernards, hold a certain majestic stoicism unparalleled by their smaller canine cousins.
