Another Pitbull attack

[quickdodge®]

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.

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.

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.

See below. Later, QD.

Link?

Link?

No link. Like I said, no conclusive study has been done for exact bite pressures. I will give you this link though that debunks alot of myths on the Pit Bull. It's not an isolated article either. Almost all of the ones you see have this same information in it or similiar.

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.

Nope, he may have added 2 zero's by mistake.

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

I'll recant my post as I searched for where I found that "info" and now I can't relocate it. Sorry. Later, QD.

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...
