"Even the largest of dogs has sass to spare, and you don’t have to look any further than Roman the Great Dane for a perfect example! This gentle giant may be a perfect angel for his mama, but it’s an entirely different story when he’s alone with his dad. On September 23, Roman gave people on the street quite a show as he refused to walk for Dad. When Mom walked up, though, everything changed!"
"This Great Dane is the epitome of sass, but apparently, only for his dad. Whether he likes the attention, wants to play, or just doesn’t want to walk on a leash, he makes his discomfort perfectly clear. It’s important for everyone, including dogs, to express their feelings, but I imagine his dad is flustered about how the gentle giant tried to do it.
"Commenters like @brookebell13 agreed that Roman isn’t really the man’s dog, as the video explains. “Ma’am, that’s clearly your dog. He was being kidnapped & trying to escape.”
"Not every pup grabs your attention quite like a Marmaduke-lookalike tugging on his own leash! It looked like Roman had already gathered a crowd by the time his mom walked up, but not even he had any idea his tantrum would gain him over 17 million views!
