[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Since you don't have a full grown man to lay on the one dog, what is the safety plan if it goes badly? Where is the dog now? If one attacks and the other defends, both could be badly hurt and they may attack a person trying to intervene. What is the plan, OP?[/quote]

Safety plan: When dogs fight, grab their hind legs and pull their legs up and them away from each other.  [/quote]

Op here. Yes, this. Also, a technique known as “whistle and missile” is very good for breaking that focus of a pitbull, or a German shepherd, or any dog on the dangerous breed list. [/quote]

Yeah, the hind legs thing is not great advice. High likelihood the dog can spin around and bite you. Most trainers recommend choking out the dog. Pits have insane prey drive, so if they're latched on, no little water spray or yelling or butt touch or leg grab works- they're not going to just release. If you can cut off air supply, that's the best way to break up a fight. Godspeed with all of that though; I've had to break up a fight like this before and I would not willingly sign up for it in pretty much any circumstance. [/quote]
