They'd be after you, too, if your yard was as worldwidely well known as his!

I want to tell you about a man. A great breeder. An amazing dogman. He's famous -- legendary even! His yard is worldwidely well known about! I am very upset about what happened to him and so should you! If you, too, are upset after reading about this poor, old, legendary dogman, find yourself a backbone and DO SOMETHING to HELP FLOYD.

I feel so bad for the poor dogs that were euthanized. However, I am so amazing ecstatic that they have enough evidence to charge that Fucker and his son. They could get 10 years for each of the 57 charges. YES! I hope they get the conviction. I really, really do. It would be such a victory for all dogs and dog lovers to sentence those abusive pricks to real jail time.

I love the Help Floyd website. It is so professionally done. After reading it I couldn't help but want to donate to that ignorant fucker responsible breeder. I mean just read read some of the eloquent writing on the website:

~ Without no explanation

~ worldwidely well known about

~ well care taken dogs

~ If YOU have any backbone, sympathy or respect to one

Apparently the only educational requirements for being in the dog fighting world is passing 4th grade.

What's even worse, is professional breeders (such as Cherie Graves) are supporting Boudreaux, insisting he was picked on. That his dogs, chained to walls with logging chains in rows and covered in scars, were all perfectly cared for.

How the fuck any respectable breeder or lover of American Pit Bull Terriers can even think about tossing in with this guy is beyond me.

Isn't Cherie Graves that lady who has gone on to say that rescuing is stupid, pointless, etc., and now buys her "gamebred" pits from backyard breeders?

...If so, I guess I'm not surprised. =\

I think the lady you're thinking of is the one who advocated pit bull rescue and wrote books and websites about it, but then buys her dogs from backyard breeders and culls them because certain colors just aren't adoptable. J-something? I can't recall.... Everyone worships her for her pit bull rescue though.

Cherie is a breeder (http://users.surf1.ws/paragon/) who believes about the same as that website says - HSUS, ASPCA are all ARA propogandists who want to take rights away from breeders to breed whatever animal they want and own whatever animal they want. She feels that fighting BSL should not be about the dogs or saving them, but about the rights of breeders to continue their age old traditions of ...breeding.

Ohhh! I remember her. The fearful animal husbandry chick. "Animal husbandry is a God-given right! BSL keeps us from our God-given rights!"

...Man. *facedesks*

If this was a quality fighting line - these dogs pose less of a threat than the average backyard bred pit sitting in a shelter. They are often sounder in temperament than pit bulls bred strictly for money or strictly for conformation ( ... )

I'm not sure I agree with breeding for "gameness," personally, but then I'm not entirely sure that I know what "gameness" is. It seems to me that it goes hand-in-hand with dog fighting. Is there a good reason to breed for "gameness"? Does anyone put that "gameness" to good, constructive use, rather than fighting dog against dog?

silverblaidd April 9 2006, 17:41:58 UTC

A dog's gameness is described as its willingness to continue to attack an opponent, or to scratch, despite being overpowered and despite having been injured.

It's also often described as a willingness to please it's master despite any injury or death to itself. (The problem with that being that dogs aren't 'live to serve' creatures.)

wirenth April 9 2006, 18:07:23 UTC

i'm on the side of the fence that defines gameness as the drive to win a fight even when overpowered or die fighting. i'm on the side of the fence that cannot separate gameness from fighting, period. you do not have a game dog unless that dog has been overpowered in a fight and continued to fight anyway. you do not have a gamebred dog unless it was bred from parents who were fought.

i think some people confuse gameness with other good, positive, sought-after qualities like willingness, drive, boldness, etc. a good bulldog can have all those things without it mattering at all if they're truly "game" or not.
