Say that a dog attacks you.

Do you think you'd be able to win the fight (and survive, this dog is hell-bent on making tasty ribbons of you) with your bare hands, if the owner doesn't try to help?
Or, say that you have a pen in your pocket - would that make any difference?
Edit: The dog can be of any size. |

depends largely on the kind of dog and its physical condition
the only thing i can think of thats swaying my opinion was the fight in the princess bride of westley against the rodent of unusual size
and then he won, but only because the random fire coming out of the ground
with your average retriever?
i'd say if you fight smart and keep calm (don't panic) then you'd stand a good chance |

A dog can be a powerful and dangerous adversary. However, a human being should be in no serious danger as long as he or she does not panic. In a worst case scenario you can feed one arm to the dog by allowing it to bite down on the side of one arm (not the front and back, then it could puncture a major artery). Once the dog has a grip, it will usually not let go. In this position, you can use your other arm to go for the eye gouge which is almost certain victory as it will have no way to defend itself without releasing your arm (and it won't until it's too late).
If you don't want to be significantly injured, you must avoid being taken down by the dog if at all possible. This will be difficult if the dog is large for small or out of shape people, particularly women. Even a relatively small dog can take you down fairly reliably however if you let it get a grip on a leg. Larger dogs, especially aggressive breeds are likely to jump for your throat: if you react quickly and raise a knee this will be no threat - and if you can strike it in the larynx with your knee it will usually run away.
IMO the best strategy is to keep your moving like a boxer but instead of using your fists you use swift kicks to the head or the side of the dog's leg (if it is tall enough). Dogs are usually muscular in the neck, head, and torso, but their legs are injured easily. Try to take advantage of their weakness. A couple of strong kicks to the head will deter most dogs: just make sure to pull your foot back quickly so it cannot bite your ankle.
I've been attacked by a dog on two occasions, in both the dog jumped their owners' fences to attack me while I was jogging at night. By remaining calm and using my ability to attack from a small distance I was able to force both into retreat without sustaining even minor injuries. I do not believe a lone dog could ever pose a serious threat to me unless it caught me by surprise.
Lastly, a pen would only be useful if you were taken down. Again, you could give it one arm and stabbing the pen into an eye, nose, ear, or throat. Any of these would be painful enough to the dog that it would probably run away.
The best way to be safe is to be prepared. After reading this post you should have all the tools you need to survive a dog attack. |

Yes, move like a boxer but use your feet instead of your fists. In somewhat of a kickboxer like fashion.

| Also remember that whilst cruelty to loving dogs is bad, but kicking cats over goalposts should commonly be accepted and more fun |

Hmmm, once saw a guy get attacked by a pitbull. He hit is 3 times on the head (at full power) with an iron bar. He never seemed to feel it. He was forced to climb up his car to be safe. When a cop arrived he shot it straight in the chest. The dog kept on rampaging for like 5 more minutes untill the cop fired 2 more shots in its head. (it still walked around for 5 minutes untill it dropped dead).
I'd say your swift size ten sucks |

Actually that stories true,or atleast i heard one similar to it on tv.2 pitbulls went berserk and attacked about 5 people,one guy beat the out of one of them with a crowbar but the dog didn't even flinch.
Eventually the cops showed up and it took 3 shots to get one of the dogs down. |

id probably axe kick it down then kick it more if it trys to eat me again
but in any case or chance, the dog would take me down, thats when i panic and roll away from the offending mouth. roll away and probably do a whirly sweep kick it and run away
but if i had a pen, i would literally stab it to death, ensuring it wont bite me ever again
ROFL my friend ashly got bit by a dog when he was on his paperound. i dont know why thats so funny but it is |
