Grab as close to the head as you can, and get you a good grip (pit bulls have nothing on me:lol:) Really sink your fingers into the back of the neck and don’t let go. If you can control the head, they can’t bite you. If the dog is short enough (doG knew what he was doing when he made chows fairly small ), straddle the back of the dog. But only if the dog is short - tall dogs can knock you off your feet and then you’re toast.
The other dog in the fight, of course, can and will bite you.:yes: So you need two people.
And if you’re not willing to get bitten, you should just say “May the best man win,” stay out of the way, and get out your credit card to pay the vet bills afterward.
Oh, and Resolve carpet cleaner is the best for getting blood out of carpets and upholstery.
ETA: But if you grab the back legs, 9 times out of 10 that sumbeast will turn around and nail you![/QUOTE]
See my instinct would be to use the hind leg method by looping a leash (preferably hospital leash) around the leg and pulling the dogs apart. I’ve had to do this with Pits before as they are very stubborn and will not give up/let go of the opponent. No way would I put my hand where I could bet bitten by both dogs. Pits have been the hardest dog fights to break up, other dogs were fine with water being sprayed, shouting etc. But each to his own and lucky for me, my breaking up dog fight days are over.
