Man in a bite suit? No, so I guess I'm talking SchH here about Eddy. I did hear that Eddy's littermate was a very serious Police dog (I believe in germany), and had many awards for some really impressive arrests. I also heard (but didn't try to verify) that this brother of Eddy's took on 4 big guys in a bar and took them all down. Eddy was trained in SchH, but I think he would have done well in any protection venue if he had been trained in that direction at a younger age.

No what I mean by Civil work is no equipment at all. To see if the dog still engages without an equipment on, just the man. To a degree you cannot know the seriousness of a dog until the equipment is thrown away.

Then no, I haven't. I've only seen him do bitework on a sleeve, but still he was a pleasure to watch. Hey Mick, are you coming to the US next year for the WUSV in October? If you do, stick around for a extra week and come to our USRC Schutzhund Nationals and Regional Sieger Show the weekend after the WUSV.
