My boy, Jet, is dog selective and even then he's got to be excited for any aggression to manifest. He lives with our female border collie mix and our male great dane puppy with no issues so far. I don't usually take him to visit one of my friends though as he tends to get REALLY wound up around her American bulldog mix. They start off being friendly but within 30 seconds you can see that it is escalating to what will be a fight (and they BOTH think of it as "play"). As long as we keep them separate they're fine.

In the end it's just a matter of knowing your dog and being really knowledgeable about dog body language. That way you can tell when something is starting to escalate and stop it before it starts.
