No. The ability of pitbulls to "lock on" with their jaws is a misperception that people refuse to let go of! The jaws of a pitbull are built just as any other dog's jaw...there is no 'enzyme', no special mechanism that would make a pitbull's jaws 'lock'. They're DOGS, not alligators! What a pitbull does have is strength, tenacity, and determination. When he grasps onto an object, he will hang on due to these bully tough characteristics. And as any well-trained pitbull can demonstrate, will let go just as easily.
