[QUOTE="Mamaof5, post: 399553"] Gods forbid this should ever happen (again in thank you's case, he's lucky it wasn't a severe bite). If ever the dogs do attempt or do bite thank you or any of you there are a few tricks you can do to make them let go and go tearing screaming from you. Use these with caution. If the dog has a limb, resist the urge to pull away but rather shove forward with the limb they have in their mouth and either slap hard on the nose or bridge of the nose. If it's an arm rap the dog with the other hand on the bridge of the nose as you push the arm forward into the mouth. This causes two things to happen: The dog chokes as they can't get air with your arm shoved into the throat and the shock of the rap on the nose or bridge of nose will cause their eyes to water. Subsequently, it causes the dog to let go and flee (flight response). You can also try grabbing the dog just under the ear at the flank of the dog (above should, below ear) and growl while yanking on the flank. This is an alpha male behavior that says I'm bigger, faster and meaner than you are peeve off and shove off I'm not interested. A good hard kick to the flank or hip can make them let go too. I would do these things unless it's absolutely last resort and last ditch efforts in an aggressive dog attack but if you have no other choice these are options that can be used to secure your safety. I hate the idea of hurting an animal but if that animal is hanging off your arm or your kid's arm it's the only option at times. [/QUOTE]
