I don't think it's that painful really, mine got me by accident the other day. Left a little row of dents but didn't break the skin. They do hold on a bit though. |

i got bit good and hard by my two year old male once, and if i had not have had a glove on, tbh i would think it would have hurt a lot! he hung on too.. little devil.. more the power of the clamp hold, than the teeth, i guess at least it means i know he has good jaw strength! dented the glove!!
