Point I made was obviously lost. This thread is not about the damage that can be inflicted, as that is an obvious thing given the size difference.
For the record, a Pits jaws have less strength PSI in a bite than a Rottweilers. This has been tested and proven. They are about equal give or take 10 pounds PSI with GSD.
Given the 3 I would rather be bitten by the pit.
