As a self-professed dog Dad with an incurable case of puppy love, I can confirm that Great Danes are the ultimate gentle giants of the canine world.

These majestic pups might tower over us mere humans, but make no mistake – in their minds, they’re permanent lapdogs just yearning to smother you with slobbery kisses and furry hugs!

Case in point? Meet Kernel, a 165-pound bundle of pure Dane love who has officially reached level 10 Velcro dog status.

This mammoth fluffball is so addicted to cuddle time that if his amazing mom Alyssa dares skip their sacred morning snuggle ritual, even once, he throws an adorable tantrum that would put any toddler to shame.

How does this giant baby voice his cuddle complaints, you ask?

By plopping his considerable bulk on the couch and whining away with the most pitiful, heart-melting cries.

Just picture that gentle giant face contorted with utter betrayal because Mom had the audacity to start her day without squeezing all his wrinkles!

I’m crying laughing just imagining the scene., which you can watch down below!

But as much as Kernel revels in being the world’s biggest lapdog at home, he’s also an absolute superhero when it comes to spreading the love everywhere else.

Thanks to his patient, gentle nature, this floof has been trained as a service and therapy dog, bringing joy to those who need it most.
