Our two personal bitches have had a couple of fights. Fortune was kind during each of these incidents—both DH and I were home when they broke out. Our youngest bitch weighs 65 lbs, our older bitch 82. I would have been hard pressed to separate them w/o help. And Rotties weren’t bred as fighting dogs.
People with experience don’t ask others for opinions, so because you asked us you aren’t knowledgeable. At best, you have limited understanding of the position in which you’re placing yourself, your Rottie, and the Tosa.
Standing by your rashly given word is foolish and potentially dangerous.
Don’t be a fool.
Tell your friend you’ve rethought your offer and you find you can no longer foster his dog because the potential danger to you and your dog is too great. It’s almost certain that if your Rottie and the Tosa get into a fight, the Tosa will kill your dog.
If you’re present, imagine the horror of watching your dog killed by another dog and you being completely unable to do a thing to prevent it.
Have the breeder of your friend's Tosa babysit the dog.
