Bite Force

The bite force of a Lurcher can vary depending on factors such as their size, strength, and individual variations. While there is no specific data available on the exact bite force of Lurchers, it is estimated that the bite force of medium to large-sized dogs typically ranges between 200 to 300 pounds per square inch (PSI).

It's important to note that bite force is not the sole determining factor of a dog's potential for aggression or harm. Canine behaviour, training, and socialisation play significant roles in determining how a dog interacts with humans and other animals.

Proper training, socialisation, and responsible ownership are crucial in ensuring that Lurchers, like any other dog breed, display appropriate and well-controlled behaviours.

This includes teaching them proper bite inhibition from a young age and providing them with positive reinforcement-based training methods to prevent any potential issues related to biting or aggressive behaviour.
