I'm sure there are many horror stories out there too though. Alot can happen. I think that it can work out for you, but I would suggest using caution and never leaving them alone together
I agree.
English mastiffs are traditionally a calm, even-tempered, good-natured dog. My friend brought two GIANT mastiffs to visit us once, and they basically lay in the middle of the floor and snored, and let my chihuahuas and fox terriers sniff them, climb on them and generally act like idiots.
However, a good part of ANY dog's behavior is how it is raised and trained.
A big dog, even the sweetest, most gentle and kind big dog, can accidently hurt a small dog ... especially when the big dog is a huge, awkward, silly adolescent.
"We give dogs the time we can spare, the space we can spare and the love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made" - M. Facklam
"We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle
"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
