Have you ever been attacked by a dog? Seriously attacked not barked at? DID IT GO FOR THE NECK??

Dogs don't naturally kill humans, we're WAY out of their food-size charts. No untrained dog will go for your neck. All it can do is incapacitate one of your arms/legs.

I'm sure there are certain dogs that can kill humans, but your average german shepherd will get fucking raped by any healthy adult.

You've obviously never had to fight off a dog if you think they're capable of killing a human easily.

P.S. Even if he jumps at your face, the standard human reflex is to put your forearm in front. So it's still the arm that's bitten, not your face.

is a kick from an unshoed, unsocked foot really all that powerful?

It will be from a trained person, from the average person i guess not unless they land a perfect kick.

really really really depends on amount of knowledge human has. just a few little things like targeting eyes, muzzle and also the mindset of the human can turn the tide so easily.

but to answer the question:
the average human male seriously sucks at fighting, having been in quite a few fights myself. no sense of timing, targeting, baiting or blocking, just swinging his fists around hoping they'll make contact. in this case, the much more agile and fast dog would probably land a bite and from the pain the human will get scared and confused and then it's just a case of the dog making more bites and human giving up and accepting death from blood loss.

tip on killing dogs - this is not so you can go around killing dogs, but one of those things that could become useful if you are ever in the situation.

take off jacket or shirt and wrap around dominant forearm (right in most cases).
stick forearm out, the dog will target it and bite it (in most cases).
will be somewhat painful but bear with it.
using other forearm (left in most cases) reach around and place behind dog's head.
in a coordinated motion, push with your dominant bitten forearm and pull back with other forearm to create leverage and break dog's neck.

Well in the situation is hard to think i guess. We are trying to make it as "average" as possible. So it just a person vs a dog being thrown into a cage. We are talking average again. So my point is that i think more then half of the persons being in that situation would be untrained, fat or weak to fight a dog. Once you get scared or get bitten for the first time its over imo.
