I got between my Beagle and a roti last summer. When I heard my precious Beagle Chloe howl in pain I didn't think, I just reacted. After being drug over 50 feet, having my clothes torn off me, having my fingers almost bitten off and blood everywhere, I ended up being able to grab an iron table and use it to beat off the Roti.
We were lucky. Beagle Chloe had her ear sewn back on (gotta love those Beagle ears---they covered her throat) and I was on meds for a month. The roti was not so lucky and was put down (bad owners).
My Vet was actually the one who popped me on the head and asked WTF I was thinking but said he would have did the same thing.
Prior to that I broke up another dog fight with a shovel.
Looking back I would think more than once or twice or thrice before jumping into a dog fight again. But I also would still protect my Beagle Chloe a million times over.
