Do yourself and your neighbors the courtesy and skip that breed  There are 400 other smarter breeds that won't kill you, your kids, your neighbors, your neighbors kids and pets. |
Hitting might not work and you could hit the person being attacked also.
I broke up a dog fight at a park last year (thankfully my dog wasn't in the mix). I grabbed one by the back legs and another guy grabbed the other dog the same way, like a wheelbarrow. Most dogs, once you grab him by the back legs will become instantly focused on that and stop attacking what's in front of him. I'm not saying it was easy to grab those legs while the dog was in a tussle.
Another trick to make a dog let go of something in his mouth...and this just doesn't apply to dog fights, maybe the dog has one of your shoes. Grab the item with one hand and run your other (closed) hand from the top of his head over his eyes and nose. Most of the time the dog will release it and wonder what happened.
I know it's easy to say "Oh just do x,y and z and it'll all be ok." The people in that situation were probably panicked and acting instinctively to just get the dog off any way possible.
