Hell in the protection of the object, that one dog (forgot the name) bit the guy square in the chest cuz it was the first open area. :lol: Those dogs were amazing, as were there handlers as I am sure they have put in many hours of work to get their dogs to that level.

Or victim, multiple suspects, cop of to search for other subject, protect victim type thing :lol: Possibilities are endless!! Either way that was very cool to see.

Legs, you cannot move so easily. Besides, there is a femoral nerve on your thigh. YOu get bit there, you go limp.

You bite the artery, you die. So what are the implications with that? Say someone is attempting to rob you...or acts in a viscious manner towards you/your family, pierces through the femoral artery and bleeds out. Are you guilty for murder?

Well if someone "robs you" I am assuming they have a weapon of some sorts, and if someone acts "viscious towards my family" again self defense comes to play. In either scenario, never forget about the owner of the dog :wink: But in either case I don't think there is a jury that will side with a criminal. I think the laws will side the same if you shot the person assaulting you, if it was with in grounds of self defense then no murder charges would stand.
