So after teaching sicko’s how to test their dogs, he goes on to telling them how to choose which of the dogs that are actually left alive should be selected for “pit purposes.” This is another one of the unbelievable sections of the book that horrifies me that people are interested in learning about for their own activities.
I much prefer a good dog who is rough and a good wrestler and a fair biter to the easy going, slow type, even if the last named is a hard biter. If the rough dog is put in good shape he will lick the other dog most every time. A nose fighting dog is a hard animal to beat, especially if he is a game one. In all my experience I have never seen a dog break another dog’s leg, just “snapped it off” as I have had so many tell me about this dog and that dog breaking the other dog’s legs or shoulder. I have seen dogs fracture a paw or a joint, but never have I seen a leg dangling uselessly.
The boring in type with that “do or die” willingness is the best of all. The loafer that gets a hold and hangs on as if he wins going to sleep, I kick out just as soon as I can. I have tried out dogs, and while they were fighting I have become disgusted that I could have killed them and thought nothing of it. I have tried out dogs that would hardly fight a lick, and they would have their tails between their legs, then when you separate them and take them to their corners, they would cross the pit in a rush to the other dog. Sometimes this kind will not take a hold after crossing, and of course they should never be fought for money.
