OK why doesn't someone do a TLG search which looks into the subject of
hRHGNUMI in Classical texts - you Americans seem to have all the technical
wizardry to do this. We Brits are still in the dark ages...

When you say "clearly it is dogs that do the rending", why is this clear? I
don't really know much about what pigs would do to people - are they
capable of ripping people up with their teeth? Is hRHGNUMI a verb which
could logically apply to dogs but not to pigs?
