I think burrahobbit's point, if he doesn't mind me spelling it out for everyone, is that the prophecy the Witch-King quotes to Eowyn doesn't mean he can't be killed by a man, just that he won't be killed by one. It was a prophecy spoken by Glorfindel, not some spell to protect the Witch-King from his foes. As burrahobbit says, his dog could've killed the Witch-King, given the right circumstances.

Glorfindel would have kicked his *** mad crazy-like. And I don't know what the King was thinking when he talked smack to Gandalf.
