One time when I was watching my sisters mastiff I took him to the dog park and saw him get attacked by a little terrier. Bear in mind that this is a +200lb dog who's job it was to protect livestock on my sisters farm when she had a farm. When that terrier attacked him he literally just put a paw down and pinned the poor thing with it then looked over at me like "help. What do I do with this?" The poor terrier was fine but it's like, really? That mastiff is bread to be able to fight wolves. What in that little terriers mind made it think it was going to be the david to that goliath.
I like huge dogs that are only terrifying when they're on the clock and are otherwise perfectly gentle. That "Sigh, Hey authority simian, I stepped in something and I need an adult" energy is just excellent.
😂 yeah that's strong terrier energy. They either have no concept, or give no fucks, about how small they are. My family's Jack Russell would square up to horses and she would not back down from anything
Terriers were originally bred for mass murdering rats, idk if that has something to with their agressive tendencies
Off-leash Chihuahuas and mini dachshunds are the bane of my (leashed) pibble's existence on walks. They are forever running up and getting right in her face. When they bite her or latch onto her throat she lays down on them. After a few squishes the dog usually gives up while the panicked owner wails "I'm so sorry... Princess! Come here Princess!... I'm so sorry... I'm so sorry."
My dog is chill but if she eventually ragdolls a biter I don't want to hear any complaining about it. FAFO.
Chaotic little guy. Must be a relative of this one 🐢
There is a meme list of the 10 most aggressive dogs, that goes something like
- Aggression is learned
- not bred
....
10: Chiwawa
Bear in mind that a lot of what we look at as fighting is really just dog play.
Having said that, I have seen plenty of real mismatches. Fortunately our enormous but gentle husky/shepherd/akita mix seems to be impervious. He just watches them trying to chew on him with a "isn't that cute" look on his face.
So… who won?
Great Danes are very often scaredy cats so likely the smol angry pub :D
eh... the GD is just playing. it wants the kitty to chase it, unfortunately Tiny Legs can't keep up.
Disproportionally massive balls? No brains? Both?
