there is a big difference between getting bit and getting smashed up all the time. i would say all good fox dogs get bit alot but good ones dont get smached all the time.
also a dog that has 9 seasons is going to have alot of scaring if it was to take just one a month over 9 years that would be 108 and im sure that it was doing more than that.
nice looking dog by the way terra was it bred in hull?
