I know what you mean by 'lock jaw' I always say my dog has one but it's not an actual locking jaw lol! They control it themselves and it's like a locked jaw as it's nearly impossible to get them to let go!! American bulldogs have the jaw muscles to "lock their jaws" but they need strengthening to be able to grip onto things well, you can help them by doing this by just playing tug rope and similar sort of things.
I hope this helps

No dog on the face of the earth has "locking jaws" I have done the research and it has shown that it is impossible for a pit's (or any dog's) jaws to lock. How would they eat or play? Also, has there ever been any documentation of a pit's locked jaws that were stuck there? Because everthing has a tendency to fail in a life time, I would imagine this would happen. However, any mastiff family breed (Pit's, Staffys, boxers and bulldog's) are extremely strong animals. Their heads are like blocks and their jaws are massive with huge fist size muscles that control the hinge joint of the jaw. So, if they are determined to play and hang on like they do with the spring pole, they will for as long as they want to (supporting their own weight while thrashing about). These dogs were used for bull baiting and for hunting bear with their master. If they can take down a bear or contain a bull, they are crazy strong! And, they are great family members too! Train them right and they will be no different that the black lab down the road. Good luck and do your research!

American bulldogs were never a mindless fighting dog like pit bulls. They are originally from italy the romans invade england and left some of the dogs behind. The english soldiers used them to bring down their enemies horses in battle. Later they were used for hunting, bull baiting and guarding livestock. Do some research.
