He was a very brave little guy but as feets points out the real problem is with the other dogs owner(s).
With regard to the Dobermans you refer I've attached a link on barrier frustration. I'm not big fan of Dobermans primarily because they are prone to a litany of genetically related health problems but they certainly aren't inherently bad dogs. A four foot fence is zero impediment to a healthy Doberman. "Going apeshit" in that situation does not necessarily mean they want to attack.
The public is simply dog illiterate. The average person, most dog owners included, is absolutely clueless about dog behavior and training.
Don't assume that small dogs or specific breeds are "safe" while other breeds are a certain risk. Almost any dog can inflict a serious bite. I've known some wonderful Rottweilers, Mastiffs, Standard Schnauzers and Bouviers and some nasty examples of Golden Retrievers and Cocker Spaniels, you just can't generalize.
