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.
That’s the point I was getting at I think a dog can be tested and be more game in a hunting situation then in the pit just because it’s a light weight going against a super heavy weight. I know a lot of people say funny stuff about one out finder holder dogs but in Australia not saying they work every where or are the best just saying there I have seen dogs hold pigs for 30 mins in the middle of summer and be on the verge of death from the heat and still holding or a cd be bleeding to the point they can’t walk or even stand but still hold. Matching dogs or cocks for that matter is illegal and I think there are other ways to test a dogs game and harder ways then in the pit. That being said I do have the up most respect for dog men that did match dogs. I just think imo that there are harder test then in the pit with a dog of the same size. If I have a gamebred dog that is just bred out amazing but never tested in the pit how can I say I have a game dog. I can sell the pups for a ton of money because of the papers but my non tested dog could be a cur n throw 9 out of 10 cur pups. Again that’s just my opinion and I don’t condone any illegal activity lol
