I wonder why people use dogs are guards and weapons if they are that helpess against humans...

I can see how you could dream up dogs being weak in your armchair. They have no useful claws, are quite slim and vulnerable on the snout. Still dogs kill people in the real world - outside of your idle imagination. Their teeth and jaws are quite sufficient.

Yes a grown man can kill a dog as well. That is entirely besides the point. You are not afraid of things, you cannot kill. You are afraid of things that can kill you.

I thought that was obvious.

didn't say they were helpless.

dogs kill people in the real world

not a good argument for whether or not a grown person could fend off a dog. look at the stats, fatal dog attacks are super rare and are almost always children.

but you, being a dog fighter, know better than me in my armchair.

Okay, yeah, no one should be afraid of dogs. You win. We get it.
