Re: Explaining Dog:Dog Aggression Vs. Dog:Human Aggression

I happened to read this thread after having met a fabulous Pitt today, a four yr old male intact, at a party. There were about 20 adults and some children between the ages of 4 weeks and 4 years.
The Pitt behaved exceptionally, interacted among everyone and was gentle with ALL the children. Including the 4 week old. The father had put the infant down (for a nap) on the floor in the master bedroom with a blanket and pillows all around it and left. The Pitt got into the room, saw the baby, smelled it and licked it and left. He (the Pitt) also played amongst all the children and adults and behaved like a role model for all dogs.
The owners told me that he is sketchy around cats and isn't too fond of other male dogs, but only establishes his dominance with out adverse consequence.
I couldn't have been more impressed with him.
