I want to give most of these people the benefit of the doubt, but I just do not understand the glorification of animal-on-animal aggression ... and these people readily admit they enjoy this aspect of pits, whether they openly support the actual sport of dogfighting or not. If they are still deliberately breeding dogs to be "game" then they are part of the problem, if not THE problem. I am not for BSL but like a free market economy, some things only work if the majority see to it. These people are hamstringing efforts to rehab the image of the breed.

One of the more telling things on that site was the general reaction to the Staffies at the Westminster show. If you go read bird-dog forums there may be some comments about conformation dogs vs. field dogs, but general admiration for how gorgeous the show dogs are. But the pitbull people were flat-out making fun of the show Staffies and gloating about how their game dogs could tear the show Staffies apart.

I don't get it. I guess that's why I have a greyhound and a mini poodle and not a pit bull. I'm a wimp.

FYI - These people from Game-dog.com found this thread and posted one over there about our discussion. Some of them are signing up here. Pit Bull Forums - This is what people think about Game-dog.com

The first post on the second page is telling: " believe they are talking about this board.........any more doubters that common code doesnt work?"
