Hopefully, the dog will get some training and the owner can get control of him. An out-of-control big, powerful dog needs to be on a chest-attached, front-leading or other anti-pull harness if the owner has trouble controlling his pulling and lunging on the lead. There are even leader head-collars that have leashes attached directly to the muzzle strap for the worst pullers there are but hopefully that wouldn't be necessary. Still, if it saves some little dog from serious injury or attack, it would be worth his using one for a while until the dog gets the idea.
