What is the bite force of a collie?

    This is an estimation based on similar dogs. A German Shepherd has a bite force of 238 lb/sq in. While the collie has a similar muzzle, it also has a smaller skull and muscle bunching. Therefore a bit force of 200 lbs/sq in would be in the ball park. You are not going to find a precise measurement, trust me. Even current research on the subject is hotly debated.
