A dog's bite is generally stronger than a human's bite.
Here's a comparison of bite forces, measured in PSI (pounds per square inch), to illustrate the difference:
- Humans: Approximately 120-140 PSI
- Dogs: Varies greatly by breed, but generally stronger than humans. Some examples include:
- German Shepherd: Around 238 PSI
- Pit Bull: 240-330 PSI
- Cane Corso: Estimated around 700 PSI
Therefore, while the specific bite force of a dog depends on the breed, dogs generally possess a significantly stronger bite compared to humans. The Cane Corso, for example, has a bite force several times stronger than a human's.
