your naivete is unreal: "Not forced to fight" of course they are forced to fight if they want to live. They are confined to small rings, sometimes with more vicious and larger dogs. It is blood sport- pure and simple.
They give them amphetamines and steroids too, to make them more violent.
It boggles the mind that someone could be so uninformed, and to make such a naïve statement as "there ought to be rules". To think they'd set up rules to protect the dogs is laughable! Except it's anything but funny.
What is the big deal? Feel free to flame me. There is bull fighting in Spain and **** fights in a lot of places. If the dogs aren't forced to fight, why is this not OK? Not all dogs are cuddlers. If anything, the dog fighting people should have rules like UFC or boxing (AKA people fighting) so the dogs don't get too hurt.
If the real reason is that scumbags are the ones making money from dog fights, then that is ridiculous. Because scum does it does not mean it should be illegal. Animal fights are sport. They are not to everyone's taste, but if there are rules to protect the animals, I say go have your dog fight.
The Big Deal is the Dogs are Trained to Kill they use Kittens & Puppies to Train these dogs to Kill Encouraging the Dogs to Tear them apart! Kittens & Puppies that are ALIVE!
Also, I doubt that Vick was the only dog fighter who killed the dogs that weren't winning or otherwise disappointed him. The dogs didn't have a choice; they were bred to be vicious (and it's a credit to the nature of dogs that not all former fighting dogs are vicious killers and can be rehabilitated) and trained and conditioned to fight and be hurt.
If I were Queen of the World, I would make dog fighters get in the ring and slug it out themselves until they screamed in pain and bled.
Sorry, but people have a choice, and at least an ability to read (in most cases) and understand the dangers of a career in boxing or other physically dangerous sports. Dogs don't.
I'm glad that there was a long sentence in this case. And if I were Queen of the World, Vick would have gone to prison for the rest of his life.
What on earth is your point? If you come to a dog forum and defend dog fighting, there's something either seriously wrong with you or you're trolling. I vote both.
The rest of your post makes no sense but to cry that people pick on you for the way you treat your dogs and has nothing to do with the thread itself.
I hate dog fighting.
Just saying people see things differently.
BTW, health wise.........our dogs are healthy as anyone's on the forum.

I really hope that this is just a bad joke.
