You started out saying Chinaman had a small head, then you said "all the dogs I mentioned had at least an average sized head. If not larger."
No, that's not what you said; THIS is what you said:
Then I SHOWED YOU that Bad Rosemary's head was rather small compared to her neck and body, as was Shady Lady, who looked almost pin-headed to me.
There is no way anyone with eyes to see can call Shady "large-headed," but you did. (See 1st quote above, your words.)
Then you said,
I never called Bad Rosemary "pinheaded," so YES, your reading comprehension needs serious help. (I only said that about Shady.)
I will again re-quote myself about the rest, so maybe it can sink-in if you read it the second time:
I also said The Queen had an average head IMO, but certainly wasn't bucket-headed or exaggerated in her head size.
I said Zebo was also about average for a male.
We did agree that Banjo had a pretty good-sized nugget on him.
I stated Boomerang had an average (to slightly below-average) sized head on him, for a male, IMO. Again, there is no fogging way Boomer had a "large" head for a male.
And we also agree that Chinaman's head was somewhat smaller than average.
So again, for the slow, of the 7 hard-mouthed dogs you yourself just mentioned, only 1 (Banjo) had what could be called a "large" head for his size
2 (Zebo/Queen) had average-sized heads
and 4 (Boomer, Bad Rosemary, and especially Shady Lady, and Chinaman) had average to below-average sized heads.
Only 1 dog on your list had what could be described as a "large" head.
Is there anything about that you don't understand, or can twist in some way?
Once again, I never said Bad Rosemary was pin-headed.
You not only mis-quote me, you can't even remember what you say yourself.
And I still do say that, genius
I agreed that Zebo had the same head SHAPE as Poncho, and one photo it looked comparable, and the rest not at all. In fact, here was your own backpedaling comment when you saw Poncho's head.
Which was basically an, "Oh shit, I was wrong," statement.Didn't Realize ol poncho had it like that.
Again, you have some serious comprehension issues.
I did not say head size affects how a dog performs, so where are you pulling that new tangent out of?
The subject was BITING, not performance, they're two completely different subjects
You're like a broken record ... so let's just agree to disagree.
My own position is that, in MOST cases, the truly hard-biting dogs are average to SLIGHTLY below-average in head-size, not average to "large-headed" dogs ...
Zukill was a finisher, not a freak-biter, which (again) is a completely different topic. He would go in the guts, and the throat, and had FREAK BODY & NECK STRENGTH (not freak mouth).
Stormbringer also had a larger-than-average noggin, but again he was not a "freak biter," what he had was also FREAK BODY & NECK STRENGTH and was a finisher in the throat. And I think finish + body/neck strength are more important traits than mouth.
Hope this clarifies,
Jack
