Rottweilers and Kangals originate from two distant places on the planet. Both dog breeds are fierce protectors of what they consider to be their own or part of their pack.
Despite Kangals being slightly larger than Rottweilers, the Rottie makes up for it by bringing a massive weight if you take their athletic frame and height into consideration.
The bite force in Rottweilers and Kangals is measured either by electrical stimulation of the jaw adductor muscles in anesthetized dogs or by calculating the forces produced by the anatomical structures responsible for biting by using mechanical equations.
If you’re wondering why no one uses wake dogs to test the biting force it’s because canines don’t know you are asking them to bite with all they have. There are few in vivo studies that tested the bite force in anesthetized dogs.
