re: How to stop a dog attack

The body slam technique appears to work based on the video from last month

Of course, there is a reason adult males are rarely killed by a dog

It’s funnier if you’ve fingered them first

I’d rather be mauled than finger a dogs nasty a-hole

The best way to stop a dog attack is to exterminate pit bulls.

After my injury but before (back) surgery, I was continuing to work at the animal shelter as a kennel tech. Taking dogs out of cages and cleaning the inside, then returning the dog. It was dangerous. One of the animal control officers had a 100 lbs. dog attack him suddenly. The dog had never been a problem. He was lucky to get away.

If a “real” dog attacks you there’s nothing you can really do short of having a weapon on you! I’ve trained protection dogs for about 5 years, everything you're saying we train the dogs to work through! A true “protection” dog there’s not much you can do short of having a gun. A knife might help, but you’re also going to take some serious damage with that before the dog quits!

As I said, a true “protection” dog you can’t do much with in terms of fighting them off! We train them to work through pretty much ALL circumstances. Even if you have a weapon, they’re trained to attack the hand or arm the weapon is in. Once a protection dog gets a hold of your arm you’ll drop that weapon like it’s “a hot potato”
