The point is that I am not talking about google searches, which you and your friend Dundean seem to obsessed with - constantly demanding quotes and citations as if it was an academic debated. I talk about practical experience, observation, and participation in the real world.
I am 32 years old. In my life I have on many occassions observed and interacted with dogs, I have been in fights in my life, I have seen dogs fight. The practical experience of any sensible individual will tell you that a man is stronger than a dog. If a dog attacked me I could defend myself in multiple ways
1 - manhandle the dog so he is trapped on the floor and then pull his hindlegs apart.
2 -drive my arm straight into his face and tnen poke out his eyes or knock him out cold with a punch from my free hand
3 - a hard kick to the back
4 - strangulation
5 - Use of a makeshift weapon such as a bunch of keys wrapped round the fist
All a dog has the sense to do is bite. The only way it could inflict fatal injuries on me is (1) I fall asleep and it eats me (2) it bites my throat. As long as I defend my throat and face (which is quite easy to do against an animal that is weaker and less intelligent than me) it cannot mortally wound me. However, one blow to its back delivered with my 300 lbs of strength and bulk would likely snap its spine in two.
