Thank you ...I didn't know that... but I WANTED that chow to come to me so I guess without knowing it I may have been doing the right thing ???? I saw the whole thing in my head ...but I DID have time to think - most dog attacks there is no warnings - so that's where we need MORE advise

If one goes for the throat - do you go under the chin or directly to the center of the neck ?

..not that I'm planning to take down a huge dog...but we have several in my neighborhood that roam off leash and are really scary looking ...but seem ok in temperment.
