He would probably kill at least one. Why put him through the stress, as well as allowing other animals to be in danger on purpose?
I apply this to all dogs. As lovable as they might be, they are animals capable of aggression regardless of breed or size.

Some are prone to dog aggression and I agree, just need to be managed properly. Many people don't know that their pet is dog aggressive and under what circumstances.

Our neighbor's Cane Corso gets along fine with a Yorkie at home, but wants to kill my Yorkies. We tried introducing Max to the Cane Corso, both on leash, but Max was scared to death and the other dog was showing aggression. The owner pulled the dog back.
