Will the mastiff be able to handle my girl?

brother has a 250 pound English mastiff, I haven’t been around this dog too much, but I’m curious how similar his dog would be to mine? I have a toy Chihuahua who loves aggressive play. Will my brother’s dog be able to handle the Chihuahua? She can really be quite dominating in terms of strength and temperament when playing.  she is a very very sweet dog but when she plays she loves to play like rough and tumble. And she honestly can really stand her own ground. My girl is pretty vicious (she is just playing).

For example when she has a rawhide in her mouth we know not to mess with her, and when she has a chew toy she absolutely obliterate it, throwing the toy across the room with stuffing everywhere. She really can hold her own, don’t even get me started when she plays tug with other dogs.

Also why are people saying that the mastiff could easily hurt or kill my dog? Couldn’t she do the same to him? I really mean it, she can hold her own ground and let other dogs know that she needs business. Believe me when I say, my girl is quite the fighter, when she bites you it hurts bad. My dog can do the same thing that the mastiff can do. There’s nothing the mastiff could do that she wouldn’t be able to handle it. She can get fierce when she needs to.

I assume you are being funny girl here. I have had time with both these types of dog recently; the chihuahua was constantly up for a fight but I could and had to scoop him up with one hand frequently. Switch to mastiff, I was out for a run and one charged me 'playing' I tried to swerve around it but still ended up kneeing it twice in it's bloated body- it did not feel a thing and if anything seemed to enjoy the pummeling. I would not bring the two together.

@Cuzzzzinkaty Sit on her, she would barely last a minute and it would be an attitude changing event.
@GeniUs but what I’m saying is if for example the mastiff tries to sit on her she would just fight back and move before the dog sits on her.

@Cuzzzzinkaty My final word on the matter is, do not allow them together it will only bring suffering.

Just give them a good rope toy and the chihuahua can learn about velocity. They'll both have fun.
@SinlessOnslaught sorry no, what?
all i had to do was read the title and think....oh it's...
