Most large dogs were developed for work and sports activities, to assist man in various tasks.

For example, several large dogs were and are still used today to help man in hunting, such as the Labrador Retriever, Golden Retriever, Pointer and Weimaraner. In the “hunting” aspect, we can also consider the Dalmatian and Bloodhound, perfect sniffer dogs, with a very keen sense of smell, capable of tracking prey in environments that man would never be able to. Some dogs that always had their activity focused on guarding and now exercise other functions also appear on the list of large dogs. For example, the German Shepherd, who has always been used as a guard dog and today, in addition to being a guard, plays an excellent role as a sniffer dog with the police.
