Yes, at this age this dog could seriously injure another.

I think the biggest problem with rescuing and people wanting to "save" dogs is that sometimes people don't face the reality that this dog ISNT for them. So I would make sure this new owner is able to take on the task at hand.

I do not think it is realistic to have this dog play nicely with other pets, BUT this can be controlled. He can be trained to NOT act outrageous at the site of another animal, and stay in control when on lead. But just cracking of the leash with another pet? Not something I would trust a 1st time owner of APBTs that didn't like them before to do.

p.s. his ears don't look that short and his head looks pretty normal to me. Do you have any other pictures??
