yep he is a gentle giant unless someone tries to touch one of us then he gets very protective. Not long ago someone tried to climb our fence and got a very big surprise. Thor jumped at the fence and took down the eight foot section the guy was climbing on. I heard several screams and opened the door to see a young hispanic male screaming bloody murder with Thor on him. I called Thor off and the guy ran away leaving a lot of blood behind. Just so you can get an idea of just how big he is he stands at 6' 2" when on his hind legs, a 32" choke chain won't go over his head, he has a 32" neck and a 51" chest.. His front paws are bigger than my hands and I can put my head in his mouth. At 10 months of age he picked up a 60 pound chow and flung it about 10' through the air. He is now full grown but may still put on a few more pounds. The ancient Romans used these dogs to fight lions in the arena and to bring down elephants. Even Alexander The Great used them as war dogs.
Bet he's a big baby with you! If he's Thor, can I call you Odin now? Great stuff!
