Had two great danes when I was a lad (now I have a beagle due to lease restrictions) and my mum has pictures of my sister and her friends taking turns riding one like a horse at a birthday party... when they were 12 or so.
The problem with mastiffs, bernards, great danes, etc. is everyone in the neighbourhood is on edge any time you take them for a walk. Some geezer actually called the police on my dad walking them one night as he thought they were being aggressive toward his wife and daughter (who were literally petting them, as our dogs were incredibly well-behaved).
Would love to have one now if not for most decent buildings in city centre here prohibiting them.
Mane wouldn’t be able to handle them, mind — he’s too kicky-fally for that sort of dog.
I have a beagle. Aren’t they brilliant dogs? So obedient.
