There goes the mastiff and the postman myth: love on video

Do all dogs hate postmen, and mastiffs are huge and scary dogs? If you think so, this story will surprise you!

The postwoman has nothing to fear from Fronky, the 176-pound English Mastiff: the friendly giant is eager for Shaun's van to slow down outside their door.

As his owner comments, his pet probably has no idea that his friend is only half his size. But that doesn't really matter: it's not the size of the dog that determines its relationship with people or other animals, but rather its socialisation.
