Yep. Gentle giants. We've had more trouble with little dogs attacking our two goldens than any other dog. I think they are fear-aggressive when they haven't been properly socialized with all sizes of dogs.

The current one's best friend was a Rottie. There have been a couple of Yorkies and three doxies who truly wanted to kill him. Fortunately they all had been on leashes.
