Popular Post BananaBandit Posted December 19, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 19, 2021 A dog in my household recently bit my face and would not let go. I was able to pry open its mouth and liberate my somewhat bloodied face. I suspect I succeeded in escaping quickly because the dog is about 7 weeks of age and weighs all of 3 kilos. How does someone escape the prolonged face bite of a dog that weighs 30 kilos? What parts of the dog should you grab or strike in order to convince it to let go? Coming to think of it...Let's say a human bites your face and won't let go. Does the self-defense strategy differ? 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Polar Bear Posted December 19, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 19, 2021 If a dog bites your arm/leg, you push into their mouth, rather than trying to pull outwards, and it forces them to open their mouth. I've used that successfully with a 100+kg dog. If they are attacking rather than just biting and holding, grab the skin at the back of their head, so they can't shake. Hitting them, gouging their eyes, or otherwise hurting them, is more likely to make them double down and start trying to shake you rather than release you. Covering their eyes can help make them momentarily release, if you can use a towel or t-shirt to cover their head, that works well. But it'll only give you a brief window of opportunity. I wouldn't put myself in a position where a dog could bite my face. 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he bites him and why take him for a dog companion, which can become dangerous when the dog becomes more adult, he will want to command the pack so even before growing up he will kill him in order to make them understand that he is the master. The non-canine culture of many dog owners is the result of many dramas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a generic Thai dog. The kind you see eating, fighting, and lying thoughtlessly on the road in every village. I'd be glad to send the little sociopath packing, but it ain't my decision. I'm not the master of the household. In fact, I might even be lower on the totem pole than the thing that bit my face. 1 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would of thought if the OP's pup is like that now biting an Adult then to keep if there's kids around is not what would do. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You touch a sensitive matter, generally speaking a dog feels by instinct what his owner wants. Personally I lived this experience in Thailand due to a certain malice of person but for prevention when I go for long walks I always take a telescopic defense with me. It has already saved me from many problems. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post BritManToo Posted December 19, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 19, 2021 (edited) Bite and release your hand could be a mistake. Bite your face and hold on would be a capital crime in my home. And the dog wouldn't be there the next day.

I find it sad that Thai people are so irresponsible about taking care of dogs period and just letting them breed and just kick em out or dump them at a temple. I heard recently of a dog killing a kid in UK and it was shot by police hope the owner serves a life sentence. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asia as you know well to a different culture than the West, in some areas of Thailand dogs and cats are part of their culinary culture as in Vietnam. While we Westerners consider them as part of the family and we would never think of eating them for dinner. Mentalities are gradually changing in Asia too but it still takes time. Maybe it takes time for us to get used to eating insects instead of eating the meat of animals, thinking only of the steak and not of the animal that grazes peacefully before being taken to the slaughterhouse. As you can see, basically it's all a question of different ways of culture, and Asia for us is another world. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post misterphil Posted December 19, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 19, 2021 When we got our first Doberman she was a biter. The best way we controlled her was to grab her by the scruff of her neck and throw her on the floor and place her on her back in the submission position. We would hold her there until she relaxed, let go slowly and tell her to stay. Dogs on their backs is a very vulnerable position for them so it didn't take very long for her to realise that we are the pack leader, not her. If they jump up at you poke them in the chest with firm fingers. They'll soon realise that jumping up and biting gets pain in the chest and with persistence they'll stop doing it. Powerful breeds of dogs need controlling from puppies before they control you. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
