Large dog breeds

Large-sized dogs are considered breeds that have an average weight of 27 kg / 60 pounds and above. Large dogs are not as good candidates for apartment living as small and medium breeds are due to their big physical size. Besides being loyal and loving family companions, big dogs are commonly used as guard dogs and working dogs. Some popular large dog breeds are the German Shepherds, Saint Bernards, English Mastiffs, Alaskan Malamutes, and the humungous Great Danes
