Yeah some of you hardcore pitbull guys seem to be talking about gameness in the fight world. I've seen plenty if hunting dogs of many different breeds be extremely game on a pig to dead game. Many dogs die hog hunting either from the hog or the heat because they work them selves to death. I know it's different than gameness in the pit. But, it would technically be dead game because they dies doing their job.
sambo and hyan... now you got it. the pit dog guys refer to gameness only in one way and that way is in the box. i guess what should be said is gameness is subjective. gameness in the box against a opponent of the same weight and hopefully both in shape is where the apbt tetsts gameness. but a dog that dont quit on a hog can be called gameness for the act of catching hogs. the same can be applied to catching butterflies. if that is what you do then a dog that never quits in his attempt to catch a butterfly then hes game for that . in typical combat sports for men, roosters and true pit dogs they are matched according to weight. in hog hunting it isnt a match to see which individual can win. im not trying to be sarcastic just glad to see now people getting on the same page concerning gameness. physical conditioning also really comes into play for how long an animal or human will continue fighting. its easier to take a whoopin if you arent also physically and or mentally exhausted. if you look deeply into dog and cock fighting you come to realize that animals dont always have to be truely deep or even dead game for you to win a good majority of your fights. THEY NEED TO BE GAME ENOUGH TO WIN. carry this over to hog catching and true deep gameness or dead gameness doesnt typically catch hogs. a dog with enough gameness to catch hogs usually does the trick,lol. and arent we wanting dogs that catch and hold hogs succesfully . at least in this thread.
