You mean BJJ, right? The dog in question was already engaged with a smaller dog and a little girl. The boy didn't fight off a dog that was attacking him. He blindsided a dog that was focused on another dog and a girl.

Again, the attacking dog was engaged with another dog at the time and got blindsided.

Sorry champ. Your mystical and newfangled BJJ/MMA (what's that?!) isnt even the "most effective" technique when given the opportunity to blindside a dog that is attacking someone else. The subject of the thread, however, is to address effective ways to defend yourself from attacking dogs. In the situations relevant to the discussion, your kung-fu is no good. I have fought with more than a few ultra-aggressive dogs and have tried sprawling and transitioning to a rear-naked. I have also tried sprawling and using a gator roll/choke, as well as, going with my personal favorite; ground and pound. None have worked with any kind of consistency. Dogs are too fast and violent. The only thing achieved by doing so is to bring your face and throat down to the dogs level.

I certainly appreciate being indirectly called out, though I think what you meant to say was "you can be open to learning techniques that could potentially save the lives of others". The way I see it, you have contributed absolutely nothing to address the subject of the thread.
