How to fend off a dog attack? - Click HERE for Original Thread

Invalid Zero
Say a large dog has a grip on your arm. What would be the best way to get it off? Punch in the nose? Eye gouge? Kick to the junk?

Stop stealing car stereos to feed your crack addiction so you don't have dogs biting you in the first place?:dunno:

I'm thinking kick to the junk though, providing the dog still has junk.

When I was younger I got attacked by a dog. It was half husky, half german shepard. He almost took my eye out and I have scares on the right side of my face till this day.

The best way to defend against attacks, is to carry a "anti dog attack kit" every where you go.

D) All of the above

try to grap the dog by his front legs, and spread apart. Dead dog, the way they are made, thier front legs will puncture the insides.

Is that true for stock dogs? Or will it work on Modified ones to?

I might sound crazy, but I was told this by a military guy that was trained in South Africa. When a dog is running towards you and jumps to bite you his mouth will open before the strike. So put your 2 hands together-one thumb on the other in a V-shape and thrust it into the open jaws of the dog. This will give you the ability to break the dogs neck.

Crazy:blink:

I wouldn't know if this works, I haven't recently been attacked by any dogs, but i've heard that if a dog is running towards you trying to bite you, take your forearm, or your hands (grasped into a large fist) And shove it far into the back of it's throat. It will make them gag, and it's very uncomfortable for their jaws to be that wide.. It's made to be a non-lethal way to stop a dog in it's tracks. Unless, of course, it has rabies. Then I suggest hitting it with a big, big stick.

THUD
Keep your strong arm free and use your weak arm to guard, if it's body twists close enough to get at it's tail grab hard
Boot fucking a dog while your in panic mode can bring you off balance and it's heavy but the scruff of the neck or collar may be all you get while it tugs and turns around you but the tail if it's got one is key.
Grab the tail the dog should let go of your arm and try and snap at your hand, get it by the scruff or collar and keep it's head towards the ground away from your neck and face after that don't let it go, it's gonna yelp and it's gonna cry.
Using your knee you can hurt it or just save your strength call for help or look for options for retreat.
I got this one neighbour who's dog has been increasingly getting more cocky he charges at you full tilt then put's on the brakes 4ft in front and barks and shows his teeth and all that jazz and so far I can back away and pick up a rock but I fear he's gonna do it soon, I will have to bring my camera along on my next walk and hopefully he's tied up cause it's scares the shit outta me.
BTW if it's a small dog your fucked I have no idea what to do other than climb a tree.

this thread reminds me of a hilarious thread i read on my350z.com a while ago.

one guy was detailing his brand new 350z, this thing was mint. all of a sudden some guy was running for his life and leaped onto the hood and then roof of this guys brand new 350z because he was running from a dog!!!! dented the shit out of buddies new car.

if i find the thread i will edit it in but man that would piss me off.

fight or flight, this guy chose flight!!!


but i think the best thing you could do is try to make yourself as big and loud as possible in hopes to scare the mutt off, you would have to turn savage so the dog could see the hatred in your eyes. I guess if the dog didnt run i would try the good old wishbone on the front legs as mentioned above.

I've heard something similar.

I'm fairly pro-dog and don't normally condone cruelty towards animals. Depending on the scenario, I'd have a hard time justifying violence. Often times its not the dog's fault, but the owner's fault. (eg. If you're being attacked by an off-leash dog, he's probably the one that deserves a "kick to the junk".)

Yeah I already knew that, but it would be very hard to do with a charging pissed off dog, or one that's already clamped on your arm.

Our Husky/Shep got a cat in the backyard a couple of years ago.. I go out, in the dark to try and get this stupid cat from the dog, dog tried to bite me with the cats body firmly wedged in his mouth, blood and guts flying everywhere.... I popped him hard on the end of his nose.. He dropped the cat which bolted off most likely to die somewhere and the dog wouldn't come near me for a week....

He won't touch our house cats, he bathes the kitten and lets him ride on his back, but he'll eat any outside cat that comes into the yard.... But he won't go after our cats when their out back on their leashes... Weird. Oh, hell be damned should you be a human that doesn't belong.. He like humans, they are tasty and go good with ketchup...

I vote for using your weaker arm to block and punch that sucker as hard as you can on the tip of his nose. It makes them cry and let go really fast. A dogs nose is super sensitive , you hit them there and they can't see anymore, they can't smell anymore and it really really really hurts lots because of all the nerves there. Follow the nose punch with a double-eye-gouge and a kick to the throat/ribs then run away...

Kicking it in the junk will only serve to piss it off further and you should be bitten for doing it... I agree with Inzane, it's the owner of the dog that needs the kick in the junk...

Having been attacked by a dog before, for reasons best left unstated...

The best way to deal with it is to wait for it to strike, they'll usualy go for an arm or leg. Once it has a good grasp on you, wrestle him to the ground and get your knee on his throat. As soon as it can't breath anymore, he'll let up and you can get away.

If you don't mind killing the poor thing, then grabbing it's front legs and collapsing it's lungs is the way to go.... Punching it's nose won't help too much if it's hell bent on killing you, (like a police dog) and in the case of a police dog, killing it may not be the most logical course of action.

animal population control. why do we even bother having them spayed or neutered when they can feed the hungry:thumbup:

Tech2
What about a shot to the soft spot under the throat and above the front legs? Guy I know has a doberman and a shot there will stop it and make it not able to breathe right. Of course, that dog's not trying to kill me.

The only time I got attacked by a police dog makes me think this might work, as you could (maybe, if you're fast enough and not busy filling your pants) get a shot in either with a kick or under your blocking arm as the dog jumps up.


But fuck that I never want to have a real fight with an attack dog.

Move towards it aggressively and punch it to death.

Great success!



But seriously, they didn't teach you to fight off a pissed off dog one on one?

no.


Honestly though... any man should be able to beat a dog down. You are 2-3times his size and have an IQ higher than 4.

Its easy to say to do all these things, but Its a totally different story when the dog is chomping on you and your in wicked pain from it biting you. I have been in the dog suit and been hit by a german shepard....they are hell of a strong dog. I couldnt imagine getting nailed by one without the suit. I dont think most people could keep thier wits during an attack to do anything effective to the dog other then hopefully get away. If it was easy to fight off a dog attack why arent more cop dogs hurt or killed.

Invalid Zero
Because police dogs have police officers to back them up.

Tech2
I could lay a serious beat down on my lasha apso no sweat, but my buddy's 140 pounds-of-pure-pain doberman I don't think would be so easy. Dogs and cats have been laying the hurt on humans since, well, since before they were humans at all.

JeepGirl
My big dog will bite you and pin you to the ground then fart on you... How are you going to fight that?


His farts are like Mace... just sulfur-y.. Same eye watering goodness...

:lol:

Were you attending Ellerslie school at all ? did you live on the south east of edmonton ??

I had an aunt that had a husky named Nanook. he got out and I remember that he attacked some dumbass kid.

STiPWR
For the right amount of money... lets say 800bucks, I will fight your dog 1on1. I will not guarantee his safety nor his life. So I am not just sitting here and talking smack.

I also am allowed to use anything that I can find in the vicinity as a weapon. Hence my IQ remark before.

I do agree with you, obviously there are certain dogs trained for taking down humans.

When it comes to the average dog, the reason why people will lose in a fight with it is because they are cared. Screaming, running etc.

If you approach a dog with an aggressive attitude, and attack it... It will most likely walk/run away.

If you can avoid it locking its jaws on your neck, you should be fine.
