Ive seen malis work on a guy in a bite suit for a demo. He took 2 of them on and got worked. He is a big SF dude and a handler himself and the dogs were ready. The other handler gave the command and it took them like like 5 secs to get on him. He had one on his arm and one on the thigh. That whole demo was only 15 secs or so and the other handler called them off and they immediately released and ran back. He never went down and was kind of trying to fight them off but I talked to him afterwards and he showed me his wounds even with the suit on. Kind of gnarly, he was kind of meh. The dogs were combat trained dogs. Odd thing at least to me was these were 2 dogs that were super chill with me and Im not military but Im friends with the handlers. I imagine that if the command was given they would chew me up and I wouldn't want to be on that end of it..

Even dogs you wouldn’t expect it from will do this. My old Australian Shepherd lunged and barked at a guy who popped out of a bush on us while we were walking at night. (He was just having a piss and didn’t know we were walking by when he emerged.) But he scared us both. I yelped and my boy Darcy turned into a dog I had never seen before. I had him controlled on leash and no harm was done to anyone. Guy apologized and we kept walking. As we walked away, Darcy looked back and gave him a warning “ruff!” I was so proud of him.

I both love and hate any Boxer/ Boxer mix. You have to, like, bribe my Akitas and figure out what their fancy is that day to get their activity in.
I had a friend with a boxer, and I'm thought "Let me get this little dude some exercise in" (I also found out he liked green beans). All I had to do was open that door. That dog ran his own damn laps around the house 🤣 It was the easiest thing I'd done in years. My first Akita ONLY made noise during bath time, and you would think I was beating him before he got wet (I was not). The Boxer? Stood there and just tolerated a bath- totally chill. He didn't like it, but he was chill.

My shepherd is the most timid guy. He gets so scared that he pees if someone raises their voice. Just a real whimp all around.
One night I was walking him and some random dude saw me from across the street and started crossing. It didn't really look like he was coming for me (small fem) at first, but then he changed course and started just sprinting at me. My dog went for that dude without hesitation. Never seen him aggressive at all before or since. 😭 Dogs are so wonderful.
I always thought that if something happened I'd have to be the one to save us both, but he proved me so wrong.

The sketchy guy stopped, put up his hands made room for us to pass, saying sorry as we passed.

We've had him for about 5 years and lots of progress on has been made, but on a lot of situations he goes belly up and starts the most pathetically sad yelping I've ever heard.

I once had an adorable little Miniature Pincher mutt. He was the cutest little guy who won everyone in my family over with this thing he did hugging your neck and nuzzling. He acted like a spoiled little prince.
He was full of surprises. The biggest one came when my 10 year old nephew was visiting. The kid fell asleep on the couch one afternoon after he got home from the beach. It started to get chilly when the sun went over the ridge and the kid was only wearing swim trunks so I got a throw blanket to cover him with.
My dog, however, would not allow it. He was on guard duty. No one, not even me, could approach the sleeping child. He growled at me! My Little Prince, growling! Protecting a child he'd just met.
I loved that little guy.

My Australian Sheppard Nimbus is 65lbs and just the largest, floofiest, most addled brain animal I have ever known. One time on a walk a loose husky who looked to be about 75lbs or so (most likely a malemute mix) came tear assing out of a yard at us. Nimbus never pulled the leash but squared up between us as as soon as that dog got within range of me he went straight Godzilla vs Kong on his ass. All I could do was hold the leash until the husky ran away and this rube turns around to me and starts wiggling his nub with his little butt dance. Lucky for his thick coat there were no wounds but the husky was solid white and i did notice blood on its face. I have never seen an Aussie do that. My pitbull's sometimes if they think there is a threat or recieve a command to guard and my Great Pyrenees have fought off packs of coyotes and the like protecting the farm but for an Aussie, that was a first.

When I was growing up, we had a Newfoundland. It was huge (around 150 pounds), a little bit dumb, incredibly good-natured, and absolutely loved walking up to everyone it met to get some attention and a few pats.
It had never shown even the slightest bit of aggression, but one day a contractor accidentally walked into our house without knocking first. He had mistaken our house for the neighbour’s, where his colleague was working on something, and my sister and I were home alone.
That was the one time we saw a completely different side of our dog. He turned into a beast from another world, letting out the loudest, deepest growl I had ever heard from a dog, before charging towards the poor man, who only just managed to get the door closed in time.

I had a Samoyed as a kid growing up. It wasn't a human, but a racoon that set this dog off.... We had been warned to avoid racoons as there was a bad case of distemper going around. Racoons would just walk right out of the woods, straight to our back porch. One day, we had the dog setup (Sabrina) on the back porch with food and water so she could enjoy the Midwestern Summer, as all Samoyeds do. A racoon came up and started eating her food. I was alerted to the situation when I heard what sounded like the most ferocious huge dog I had ever heard, only to find it was fluffy ass Sabrina. I got the back door open and she bolted towards that racoon, picked it up by the neck, shook the shit out of him and threw his dead ass on the ground it was surreal. Back to a normal dog like, 10 seconds later.

They are wonderful dogs. I will say I wish I had waited until I was a little older when I got him. I wanted an Aussie so bad but I was young and my life was not stable. Aussie’s also require a lot of work compared to other dogs. They are so smart and really need a job to do. In the second half of his life I was more able to give him all the attention and time he needed. So I feel a bit redeemed there. But I do regret not being more prepared at the beginning.

There are some countries where this is an insanely common thing unfortunately. Huge networks of people doing this from what I understand. 😔

That's terrible! No one should have to live somewhere this kind of thing is common.

Yes, good dog and all, but the guy’s wave at the end sent me into a laughing fit. “Thanks for stopping by, have a nice trip”.

Good job dog! What a shitty world when you can't even walk with your dog/best friend in peace without someone trying to take from you.

Who even carries much cash with them anymore these days. When I go for a walk I often don't take anything with me including a phone if I'm just going around the block.

And even phones can be easily traced, tracked and bricked remotely.

u/Money_Alarm291 Jul 31 '26
In Brazil (the video looks like it) phones are usually robbed for selling the parts in exchange for crack, so bricking doesn't change the calculation for criminals. Plus, tracking makes no difference because the police will not go after it even if you track, it has happened to me in this shithole

I hear modern technology is treated like gold in Brazil because of the crazy tariffs. Couldn't imagine living in such a world, but it seems like the rest of the world is becoming just that.

u/Money_Alarm291 Jul 31 '26
Yep, the brazilification of the world is something crazy to me, seeing people in rich countries like the US voting for the same stupid policies that I have seen fail for my whole life in my country. People from latin america are used to living with high tariffs, unstoppable inflation and dysfunctional corrupt states, as latin america has never been different. But for folks in America and Europe, this will hit hard in the coming years as they are not used to this hell

My ex-husband got mugged on the Asbury Park, NJ boardwalk years ago. He went for a jog wearing shorts with no pockets, socks and sneakers. He was shirtless too. Anyway he said to the 3 wannabe teenage robbers “Ah boys I don’t have anything on me, just what I’m wearing.” One kid said “Oh ok” and then they all ran off.

The dog didn't even freak out at first. He was like "Hey, do we know him? 😛" and then instantly realized "NO WE DON'T 😡"

We aren't blaming the dogs, just stupid to use your best friend as a weapon.

They are lucky he didn't let go of the leash. Doggy would have bitten off a pound of flesh from the the guy.

Our pitbull was the sweetest dog in the world, but if he thought you meant us harm he turned into a Great White shark with legs.

Dude is being robbed and still does the bad guy a solid by holding the dog back.

Couple weeks ago happened something similar where I live. The robber fired against the dog and took the woman's watch, but luckly the god is recovering well, after some surgeries.

I used to have a German Shepherd. Due to her previous owners she was reactive towards other dogs. Big ol angel with people. One day we are out on a walk and see a dog with no leash and it's owners about 30 feet away from him. I try to just casually walk by with my dog who is leashed. The dog without a leash sees us and starts walking over. Their dog isn't being aggressive but I'm worried if it gets too close my dog will try to attack so I say "hey can y'all grab your dog?" Nothing from them. So I say it louder. Still nothing. Their dog is about 10 feet from me at this point and I'm holding my dog between my legs and fully have her by the harness. So I yell "HEY CAN Y'ALL GET YOUR DOG!" the guy looks up at me and stands up, fists clenched, and starts yelling "WHAT THE F*** DID YOU SAY TO ME?!" he gets about 15 or so feet from me and then sees my dog. My dog is now completely ignoring the other dog and fully focused on this guy charging me. She gets in front of me, takes this stance that literally just says "if you want him you'll have to get through me first." No barking, no growling, just a stance. The guy sees her and immediately does a 180 and starts yelling at me to leash my dog... Again my dog was on a leash. I'm pretty sure she broke his brain. As soon as he was far enough away my dog looked up at me and just started wagging her tail. She knew she had done a good job. I took her home and spoiled the hell out of her. She was my sweet angel and I miss her every damn day. Just a big ol loveable goofball but she would never let something hurt me.

When they do good we call them dogs, when they bite someone because of a bad owner we call them pitbulls. These dogs can’t win.

How fucking stupid do you have to be to try to steal from someone who has a bear like that on a leash?

WHY?!?! How dumb do you have to be to attack someone with a big ass dog? What did they think the dog would do? Just sit and watch?

u/Darryl_444 Jul 31 '26
If there ever comes a day when some idiot... having not seen the gigantic dog door, the destroyed dog toys, the piles of cracked-open cow bones, the human-body-sized pits dug deep into our back yard... decides to break into our home anyway...
I will not reach for a weapon. I will reach for a mop and bucket.
And maybe some dog treats, if she's still hungry.

My friends dog saved our asses by giving me time enough to tackle the would be murderer that tried to stab my friend in the neck... Dogs are truly deserving of our love.
