dogs that dont like to get bitten on the head

dog that when are faced against a head dog they try to avoid getting hit and attack the rear end of the dog or the chest from behind the legs.. were they considered currs.

 

Seems to me like a smart dog...

 

I would say that it is not a good sign. Anytime that an athlete shy's away from an opponent, you have to wonder what will happen when he gets heated?

 

Of course humans are more intelligent than dogs, but... Here in Holland we have a worldfamous K1 fighter his name is Peter Aerts aka The Dutch Lumberjack... One of the skills he is feared for is his really devastating lowkick (lumberjack lol).
It is part of his fighting style and I sure would not call him afraid to take hits.
Now back to the dogs... There are dogs that really panic and don't fight back when they are taken in the stifle, and I have seen that more then once...
Of course a "dumb" stifle dog, who is only fixated to that one hold, is very vulnerable for an opponent who knows how to take him out.

 

Never heard of a dog that likes to be bitten on the head

 

Good one... just a simple fact...

 

The point is were not talking about said dog running around the OP ssaid the dog would take a back hold in order to not get its face torn off.....that seems pretty damn intelligent to me if i was an Mma fighter and i was getting abused standing up im pretty sure im going to go to the ground whats the difference

 

I read in the post that the dog tries to avoid getting hit. That right there is the problem. If the dog is a rear end specialist, he doesn't avoid getting hit. He knows he is going to get hit to get his spot. Avoiding getting hit is not a game pit in my opinion.

 

Wait for it wait for it LMAO.

 

i guess i just dont agree just because u try and not get hitt doesnt mean when u do ur going to jump the wall it simply means u are protecting yourself imo if a dog sits there and lets the dogs cream him by not simply dodging or ducking when the dog is about to get bitten that sounds to me like a brilliant dog who keeps himself away from getting hurt to capitalize there have been a few dogs out there who have learned to dodge right before the other dog can grab hold ozzie had a couple il try and dig up the article.... gameness has nothing to do with dodging a blow but doesnt it mean the will to go on no matter pain or face of death? bottom line id rather my dog learn to duck and dodge and move a little in order to capitalize on his opponet and to avoid injury that can be avoided... now if the dog refuses to keep going WHEN a blow is landed that is a cur

 

The funny thing is... The same can be said about a dog that rides the ear or head. He is trying to stay out of trouble by holding the muzzle away from him.

 

EXACTLY!!!!, I was waiting for someone to mention that.......Only time a dog is a cur is if it QUITS.

 

We love it when another persons dog likes to get bit,, right Saiy? lmao

 

Hey hey now I dont know what you are talking about Gringo as I only have Chihuahuas LMAO.

This topic getting too hot for me Im done lol.

 

The gameness of a dog is not to be confused with his strategies and tactics. Calling a dog a cur because he does not want to fight straight on "head to head", is using poor judgement. The same was said about our American troops by the British because we used Guerilla warfare instead of their conventional " head to head " warfare. They too called us curs, yet we built a Nation using these strategies and tactics. We changed our style of fighting in order to defeat the enemy, in todays Army we still change and adapt. A boxer, Chess player, and MMA fighters do this as well and I believe these examples are part of the purest form of fighting when it is legit. A battle between to men with equal skills, there can only be one winner. The same can be said about two skilled dogs. A skilled dog uses Strategy (take out his rear legs), uses Tactics (charge forward and maneuver around to get the stifle and avoid getting bit on the head!) and finally, when all else fails, use Gameness to out last his opponent! Where gameness comes into question is when a dog charges forward and attempts to maneuver to get the stifle and his opponent goes for his head, the charging dog then hesitates, backs away or turns. Is he a cur? or does he simply need to rethink his tactics? correct me if i am wrong, isn't that why they are picked up and scratched? that is when you find out if he is a cur (if he stays in the corner and refuses to scratch). But then again, all of you are real dogmen and know more than I, Im just putting my two cents in because I can, whether I am right or wrong.

 

damn it aint that complicated

 

LMAO! Exactly my point!

 

that was an observation when watching my patterdale hunt.. thats what he did.. in his second hunt he went for the back legs quicker.. i was like aha.. he learned his lesson lol

 

I guess if he allows the head dog to grab him and lead him around by his head he should be considered game? LOL!
