Anyone know how many pounds of pressure a German Shepherd Dog exerts with his jaws during a bite? I seem to remember a discussion about this some time ago....?

It was studied for a TV program, but I am sure if data is available.

So... 238# ???? Any others measured? Just noticing how GSD teeth sink through skin like skin was butter when my dogs misjudge in play.....can't imagine what a serious bite would be like! And Beckett looks like he has way more muscular jaws than the GSD shown! jackie harris

Jackie:  I don't know how accurate any measurements of this are, as
over the years I have seen all sorts of figures - and refutations of
figures / methods - published.  Someone in a thred on here recently
quoted - I think it was - "135 psi"  which seems reasonable to me, just
based on observation
and the occasional unlucky experience (!)Omg Smile

Whatever ...
anyway, it HURTS.Cry Smile
