I have two dogs, one half American Staffordshire Terrier and half Black Lab, who’s immmensely self-confident and friendly,who’d probably to stand up to the article’s cat. OTOH my other dog, a Great Dane, is timid, loving and defferential. That cat would take him in an instant.

Could be!

I saw a couple of altercations and it ended when the cat sliced up the dog's nose. Short battles.

Of course, if the dog persists the only chances for the cat are to flee or roll onto it's back, grab the dog with front paws, and disembowel the dog with it's hind legs. It never came to that, at least in my observation.
