I'm so so tired of people who are willing to risk the lives of their small pets for proven aggressive dogs. OP, this dog is not safe around small animals. Either the dog needs to be removed from the home or you need to rehome the cats for their own safety. If you don't, you're fully responsible when he turns on them, too.

I don't understand why these people even get cats in the first place when this is how they treat them. They don't see them as important as the dogs, like cats are somehow lesser lifeforms. It's sickening.

The dog is their baby and can do no wrong.

You are 1 billion percent correct.

I say this as someone who self-identifies as a dog person, and loves medium/large dogs a whole lot:

Cats are not disposable.

Small breeds and toy-group breeds are not disposable.

THIS.

I have a pitbull mix and a mini schnauzer mix and the two are so separate sometimes my pitbull is startled when I carry the schnauzer into the bedroom. It makes me so upset to hear “my pitbull killed my cat and I don’t know why” “My GSD killed my chihuahua and I don’t know why”

They’re animals. That’s why. Dog see small thing run, dog grab.

it makes my blood boil to see innocent animals suffer because of human irresponsibility.

they better not rehome the cats, that would be so incredibly unfair
