Bite Force

The bite force of the Catalan Sheepdog is estimated to range between 200 to 300 pounds per square inch (PSI). The size and power of the jaw muscles, the anatomy of the skull and teeth, and the level of drive and effort put forth by the dog all play a role.

The range of 200 to 300 PSI for the Catalan Sheepdog falls within the average range for medium-sized dog breeds.

Catalan SheepDogs, like many other herding breeds, are not typically known for having an exceptionally strong bite force compared to breeds that were specifically bred for tasks such as protection or hunting. They are more renowned for their herding instincts, agility, and intelligence.
