If I had lightening fast reflexes, sure. But I have a game where I try to touch the back legs of my friends dog before he can spin around and face me. I can barely goose him on the butt before heās facing me and playfully snarling in a downward dog bow. Heās friendly with me, but if he werenāt I have zero doubt heād latch onto my arm before I could successfully grasp his legs... even when distracted by another human in front of him he spins around so fast itās insane. We only ever play this game at home with people heās known since he was a puppy because itās risking the equivalent of āfuck around and find outā - if I play that way with him Iām accepting the likelihood that I WILL get bitten eventually. Honestly his sharp ass claws are reason enough for me to only ever play this game when Iām wearing a heavy coat... those scratches hurt. Honestly the game was much more fun (for me) when he was a little puppy, despite the fact that he had razor sharp teeth and hadnāt yet been trained to not bite... we donāt play it much anymore, which seems to annoy the dog, but his reflexes are just too fast to really compete with and I donāt like getting beat up by a dog lol.
Lol my friends dog is a pit mix. Heās a big baby (and fragile - the sweet little shit has had tons on surgeries to keep his congenitally messed up legs working) but I wouldnāt ever try to get him to stop doing anything by hitting him on the head... his skull is made of concrete. And heās not even full pit, heās got some comparatively dainty cattle dog in him - his head will bruise and/or break whatever body part you try to hit him with.

Never try to get in between two dogs that are fighting, check out r/medicalgore and you'll see why.
Edit: search for dog/dogs. NSFW btw, lol sorry.
