We know what you’re probably thinking. An Irish Wolfhound? What’s that? Some sort of cross between a wolf and a dog? No. They aren’t wolves at all, but people originally used these pooches to go wolf hunting. Eventually, folks realized that they’re way cuter and more adorable as pets. But they’re pretty big too. So, coming into contact with an Irish Wolfhound might startle you, but they’re actually very friendly. And to prove that, people are posting some adorable photos to show just how big they really are.At 101 kilos, (roughly, around 223 pounds) he’s a mountain of pure love, drool, and wet slobbery kisses.

Just look at this pooch who takes up most of the bed. There’s not a whole lot of room for another animal. Fortunately, this one doesn’t mind letting that tiny dog lay on top of his belly.

Maybe both of them do? In any case, once you’re done staring at this pic, make sure to pick up your jaw off the floor. Don’t you forget it!
She’s probably used to dealing with her doggo’s sloppiness. We’re just hoping he didn’t break her neck trying to snuggle with her. He looks painfully heavy!
He might’ve crushed his owner’s lungs in the process, but hey! At least he got to see that pesky neighborhood squirrel who thinks she can just come and go as she pleases.
We’re pretty sure Gigantor over here is sweet as pie. But is he starting to drool and considering the little one as a snack? Hmmm. We hope not!
