gnasher16 30,591 Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 Doesnt surprise me at all,look at the size of a rottweiler !....theoretically frank bruno probably hits harder than joe calzaghe what with him being 4 stone heavier.....but does he have the necessary speed,style and intelligence to land them heavier blows as effectively as the smaller man ? can a rottweiler do as much damage as a pit bull ? i think not.......one thing i learned many years ago....a dog bites hard because he wants to,simple as that.

BlueCoyote 0 Posted August 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 (edited) just guessing but i bet this dog could beat all three combined and i agree with Gnasher..... but you cant beat the tenacity some breeds show, and the fact that a bulldog, once in frenzy mode, is hard to stop. doesnt matter how hard he bites.... how much flesh is he ripping off your arm?!.... thats where a lot of people go wrong in their opinions about how tough a dog is. any dog can bite..... and more often than not a good kick will put most dogs off from going after you again... but SOME dogs just get meaner the more you "agitate" or struggle.. and i think that is partially training and partially breed... bulldog types (rotti included) are heavier dogs designed to work with cattle, boar and bears as well as guarding property.... for that i tend to give them more credit than i do shepherds. i'm sure a ram with an attitude could do some damage but nothing compared to bulls, boars and bears.. of course at the end of the day you have to ask yourself.... just how crazy are you and how bad do you want what that dog is guarding? one bite from any of those breeds hurts like hell!!

kash 1 Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 there's a good book called pit bull & other tenacious gaurd dog breeds might be worth a read Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Simoman 110 Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 I've taken thousands of bites from rotties, shepherds, malis and dozens of other breeds and the trouble is that power from the bites varies with each individual dog from the same breed. The power excerted also depends hugely on whether the dog has a full mouth grip and whether the dog is in prey/defense drive, this will have a huge bearing on the pressure excerted Quote Link to post Share on other sites
