    as killer stated, unless the pittbull is roided out and beefed up, you better believe he's about to get the ass whoopin of his life if he comes at me and i dont know the owner. even if it's roided out, he might get to my neck whatever, but aint no way im going down without seriously injuring that dog.

    And as far as pitt's go, yea they have bad rap, i just recnetly lived in ahouse with 2 Korean dogs.. not agrssive at all they just bark at everything, well our neighbor had a small little annoying black dog and always snapped at bigger dogs that came by, our dog ran across the street and snatched it up one night and nearly killed it. Animal control came, no big deal. if it was a pitt. a story on the news. gauranteed. wonder how often that happens daily.

    a male american (purebred) pit bull can reach up to 110 lbs.
    a female can get to about 65 lbs

    they also have something called lockjaw. when they clamp down on something they arent letting go unless they want to.

    Actually the comman weight for a purebred pitbull is between 35-55 pounds, while the original APBT were 20-40 pounds. Almost all of the muscle bound pits you see weighing 80-110 pounds have been cross-bred with other breeds.

    Also, there is no such thing as "lockjaw". Pitbulls have very strong jaw muscles, but DO NOT lock in any way.

    well whatever, its called lockjaw. have you ever tried to pry open the mouth of a pit/ or american bulldog too thats clamped down on something.... its almost impossible, hence why its called lockjaw

    I've heard it referred to as lockjaw many times. But it's just a term used. Second to the Hyena, pitbulls exert the strongest jaws at 20,000 lbs of pressure. Later, QD.

    You can call it whatever you want, doesn't mean it's true.

    I own an American Bulldog, and yes I know how strong AB's and APBT's jaws are. Like I said, there is no type of locking mechanism in their jaws...this is a very common misconception which has been proven false by medical studies.

    yeah, my father my cousin and i were talkin about coyotes one day (my dad had shot a problem coyot while we were hunting) and my cousin was like "man i'd hate for that thing to get a hold of me..." he was acting like they were a superior dog... and that when my dad just goes.... "kyle's pup once full grown could do more damage to you and would destroy a single coyote if it had to"

    they have some serious jaw strength and that's for sure.

    It's all good. Like I said "you can call it whatever you want" just pointing out that the figure of speech might not be the best because it leads to many misconceptions.

    well its not like its a machine once its on it breaks and wont come off its just they have the strenght to hold for deer life its there thing they do like how a lion wont let go of a animals neck till its dead. but u might as well call it his death grip cause like ive said its been done many times before and when it happins yull be lucky to get the dog off.

    Actually, there has been no conclusive study that shows exact bite pressures of the Pit Bull and if it's even worse than any other bite. The UGA apparantly did a study on it and couldn't get an aparatus that would measure bite pressures. Pit Bull jaws are the same as any other dog, no "Locking Jaw" mechanism.

    It seems to be all about tenacity and willingness to just not let go. The heavily muscled heads of Pits will naturally give you more bite pressures. But nothings proven.

    I grab the dog up and took it to the vet they checked it over and said it had crushed ribs,punchured lungs and broke back. It had to be put down.......

    It took animal control 45min just to come out and they still havent found the pitbull but from what was herd it has killed a poodle and attacked 3 other people before

    Im worried because i have 2 chihuahua's myself

    that sucks

    Is that of just the dog family (Which a Hyena is part of) or all animals? Because I think a Crocodile/Alligator would have more.

    Which I've heard Rottweilers have the strongest bite. But the reason they aren't used in dog fighting is because they are too slow compared to a pitbull.

    For the pitbull owners out there. What is it that drew you to a pitbull. We all buy dogs for a reason. I got a Border Collie because I wanted an extremely smart dog that had great endurance and could catch frisbees,balls,etc. I know other people like labs because they are fairly athletic and easily trained to catch frisbees and such. And people get small dogs for well I have yet to figure out why people pay huge money for a small dog that does nothing but bark, pee, poop, and nip at you and all of it in your home.

    Hyena's have one of the strongest bites per square inch period. As far as domesticated dogs, its pretty subjective, but the highest recorded number comes from a Rottweiler ~325psi. Almost 50lbs more then a pit. Though the Cape Hunting Dog of Africa is said to come in around ~340psi

    to me a pit is one of the most beautiful dogs... the variety of colors and what not.. (mine is like a buckskin/brendle) they've got great personalities... great protectors... and overall perfect size.. i hate lap dogs... BUT i also don't want a 100 pound dog... shedding isn't too bad cause they don't have crazy long hair...

    QD, 20,000 lbs of pressure? A Nile Crocodile bites at around 5000 psi, Great Whites around 6600 lbs. 20,000 has to be a typo because I know you are too smart not to look that up.

    I was asking QD for a link, not you. 20,000 lbs of pressure is a lot and there's no way a pitbull can produce that.

    Hello Brain Train. I was saying that there is no link to 20,000 lbs. And I believe I JUST said what you just said. Thanks for the reply though, it was well thought out and useless.

    I don't know who pissed in your cornflakes, or why you even quoted me in the first place. I know what he was saying was wrong that's why i asked him for a link to back up his post.

    Oh, you already said what I said? well 'Brain Train' I was agreeing with you're statement...

    My post was not meant to serve a purpose other than to tell you I wasn't asking you for the link and that I agreed with what you said. Why you even responded to me is beyond me...I guess you couldn't be outdone by my useless post so you decided to top mine...I get it now

    Yes, it is always the owner, not the dog. Cause these types of dogs are fighters by their nature. So if nobody trains them, they will attack anything moving at their site.

    A pit bull bite my friend's mother on the face just couple months back. I am just piss off by those un-responsible people out there. The pit bull runner was trying to say my friend's mom was trying to play with the dog and she was the one caused the accident. Sh*t she was scare of dogs.
