Anyone who thinks dangerous aggression and “ Great Dane” belong in the same sentence shouldn’t be making decisions about dogs.
English mastiffs are some of the most docile creatures on the planet, and bullmastiffs are famous for their affection for children. My bullmastiff Maggie is a 110 lb lap dog, that is scared of Japaness beetles, eats ice cubes for treats, and doesn’t have an aggressive bone in her body.
I hate this knee-jerk reaction by bureaucrats that know nothing about dogs, breeds, or animal psychology. Shame on you Cumberland County, SHAME!
