Wried ordering of animals, i reckon i could take on a pig before taking on a dog.

Pigs are often underrated by people unfamiliar with them. We tend to have the "cute little piggy" image in mind.

People used to hunt pigs with specialised weaponry, in groups. And sometimes were killed by the pig anyway.

It depends on the pig, since humans have selectively bred pigs in all sorts of ways. Not as much as dogs, but plenty.

I was once drafted in by a friend to recapture a small escaped pig. We cornered it and held out this large square piece of wood to try and ‘pen’ him in. He charged at us and knocked us over like pins in ten pin bowling!
 
There might not be anything left of you if you fail though. Pigs will eat everything including the bones, if Snatch is to be believed.
I beat one of my pigs daily to get him over his joint pain, been with them for 10 years, lovely animals. They however would be able to rip you apart if they so desired so not sure my post clarifies anything. I guess Don't underestimate and they also can't digest enamel so that's why the teeth remain.

Maybe some paracetamol instead of beating him? I don’t know…. Im not a vet.
 
Wake up at 4am...
5km run with a heavy vest
shower, work.. jog at lunch... work then evening activity
mondays: boxing
tuesday: gym
wednesday: yoga
thursday: gym
friday: Win Chun

saturday/sundays: if there's no event, it's gym and the other day is a rest day.
If I did this, I would be as hard as nailz... but I don't lol
so I can prob take on a tomcat, if I drank a few cans of stella before hand..
 
Pretty sure I'm very far from tough. I almost cried when I accidentally stood on a spider the other day...

I have an arrangement with spiders in my house. My side of the bargain is that I leave them alone and will rescue them if they're silly enough to go into the bath and their side of the bargain is that they stand still while I can see them. Spiders scurrying about give me the heebie-jeebies.

The option list and your post have reminded me of something. One summer years ago I had windows open due to the heat and happened to notice a large slug on the outside of one open window. It was an upstairs window, so it stuck in my mind a bit. I didn't know slugs climbed that high. A bit later, I had another shower then went round closing windows before going to bed. The slug was nowhere to be seen. After closing the window where it had been, I blurrily (no glasses on) saw a long wet brown thing on my shoulder. I had a bit of a hopping around squealing and flapping before I realised it was a lock of my hair. :)

You have the boxing and that's going to come in useful but i have seen guys back in Yorkshire back in the day who would square up then rip their shirt off (no this isn't some gay fantasy ha) and then get totally annihilated by their lesser not ripped opponent.
I suppose this could be fight experience or maybe that ability to not hold back
