We've done this before with a PTO/brake setup where the wheels would lock when the PTO was engaged and the momentum of the whole robot could rip apart our hardened steel dog.
Our Ti dog didn't break and we could make it even smaller, but it was expensive and a MASSIVE pain to manufacture, so we had a machine shop (that a mentor worked at) make our second set for us. Unless you have a real need, and a ton of machining resources, I would advise against this.
