What is a break stick
A break stick is a device made to be inserted in the mouth of a pit bull (behind the molars) to gently pry open and release its grip on an object or another animal. This is a safety item every pit bull owner should possess.
Hittade det här på ett pitbull forum. Hoppas det är okej att det är på engelska?
Det står att det är en myt att deras käkar låser sej men att dom har ett väldigt kraftigt bett som kan vara väldigt svårt att avbryta:
Why Every Responsible Pit Bull Owner needs a Break Stick:
Because the pit bull has been bred for their fighting abilities, they can inflict serious injury to other dogs if the fight is not broken up quickly and efficiently.
Even the most well-behaved pit bull could potentially fight one day. A break stick can easily help you get the pit bull to release another dog.
This, in no way, means the pit bull has "locking jaws". That is a myth.
Pit Bulls have the tenacity to hold on, and the break stick gives the owner the ability to get the dog's jaws open.
Keep in mind that most dogs fight differently than pit bulls. The pit bull will get a solid grip and then hold and shake. The break stick has been designed to break their grip.
