No dog has the ability to lock their jaw when biting. “Lock jaw” is a medical condition where ANY dogs mouth can lock when opening wide. It is not breed specific.
No dog has a locking jaw. Their jaw may be powerful but NO breed can lock it's jaw. (Not even a pit bull or other bully breed)
Lock jaw, also known as tetanus, is a condition characterized by severe muscle stiffness and spasms, particularly in the jaw muscles. It is caused by a bacterial infection and can be potentially life-threatening if left untreated. Vaccination is available to prevent tetanus.

What do u do to part a staff that gets lock jaw on another dog
Hi there, I own an American Staffordshire Terrier, very powerful dog including the jaw. My best friend owns a boxer and we had this exact discussion between ourselves about 2 years ago. We exhausted every avenue of "lock-jaw". Read every thing we could find about lock jaw and asked numerous Vets. They all had the same answer......No dog on this earth has "lock-jaw". The only case of a dog having lock-jaw was a dog with tetanus lock-jaw, it is very rare that a dog gets this type of disease , that is the only type of lock-jaw a dog may get. It's a medical condition , nothing to do with the actual "lock-jaw" I hope this answered your question...there is no such thing as a dog with "lock-jaw". Its a myth. Check out this site, its the one we found to be most creditable and he confirmed the "lock-jaw" myth http://pitstopnc.tripod.com/id2.html

No a pugs jaw DOES NOT lock. If you are having a dog with this problem you need to see a vet. It could be a simple tooth problem or somethiing genetic tho pugs are NOT given to having jaw issues.
tetanus has the tenancy to cause lock jaw if left untreated i.e un-innoculated persons etc. lock jaw is where the muscles around the jaw tence up and cause a closed mouth i.e lock jaw effect and the person will need to go to the doctors/hospital and have there jaw injected with a muscle relaxant and "pry" the jaw open again, if lock jaw is not treated immediately then cracked/smashed teeth can be a result of to much down and upward pressure on the teeth. very nasty, cheers
