Interesting point.

However, because I fear we're being slowly led astray from the original
subject (of this thread), I would like to say that I'm not searching for a
way to say something like "each dog I tickle bites me".

I'm (was) searching for a way to say "every time I tickle a dog, he bites
me".

Obviously {Hochlogh} can work perfectly for situations like the last one.
