Well to be truthful
Dog Fighting is a Southern thing
There was even a C&W song
“I wouldn’t take her to a Dog Fight Even If She Had a Chance to Win “
I saw Buck Owens sing it on TV
You must have been educated myopically. Jack London wrote about dogfighting in Alaska over 100 years ago. It was in a fiction book, “White Fang”, that most snowflakes have never heard of. I never heard of Alaska as a part of the South. There are dogfighting rings in California and the Midwest too.
