I can't believe you don't have any video of your dogs working!! What a great find.

Questions:
First, why does your pitty look like that?
Second, so if I were a criminal and let's say a trained dog were gnawing on my shin would I use the "off" command to have them release?'

What is the effectiveness of the dog against a human that's willing to hurt it back. Is this where gameness comes in to play?
I'm guessing the dog is quite effective against a "normal" person because of their lack of awareness in a defensive situation. What's is a typical procedure with bite work if for example your dog has them by let's say the bicep but that person uses their other arm to eye gouge or even worse starts repeatedly slashing or stabbing your dog with a knife?
Personally and I say this as a martial artist who's competed for years and has taught self defense... I'd give them my cash.
I can however see this being useful in a deploy your dog / run away to avoid rape situation. But statistically speaking your typical assailant is to some degree armed. Are the dogs trained in some way to adapt and overcome?

Vertigo wrote:Wow very cool. That's a whole lot to think about. Thanks so much for the cool stories and responses.
I personally don't want Montgomery to even know he can bite a person so I'm guessing that bite work is good to avoid - although I can see that maybe controlling it is better than ignoring it.
But wow that's is all really, really cool.
