The Tibetan Mastiff has a powerful bite force, estimated to be around 556 PSI (pounds per square inch). This strong jaw pressure is a result of its large size and muscular build, making it one of the breeds with a significant bite strength. Such power, combined with their protective instincts, underscores the importance of proper training and socialization for this breed.
A Tibetan mastiff. They are much bigger with a bigger jaw strength as well.

Hyenas have a stronger jaw.
A 170 pound mastiff can't do the things a 50 pound pitbull can like bringing down a bull or hanging from the jaw for minutes.
The American Mastiff has a strong and powerful jaw, capable of exerting significant pressure when biting. While specific measurements can vary, it's estimated that their bite force can range from 500 to 700 pounds per square inch (psi). This impressive strength is characteristic of large breeds, allowing them to perform tasks that may involve gripping or holding onto heavy objects. However, individual bite strength can vary based on factors like age, health, and size.
No, a Bull Mastiff is not considered a "lock-jaw" dog. The term "lock-jaw" often refers to the misconception that certain breeds, like Pit Bulls, have a unique ability to lock their jaws when biting. However, all dogs, including Bull Mastiffs, have a similar jaw structure and do not possess a locking mechanism. It's important to focus on training and socialization rather than breed stereotypes.
Australian Shepherds, Shih-Tzus, and Miniature Schnauzers mostly have under bites. There's nothing wrong with it. Their lower jaw is just larger than the top jaw. They're born that way
