Should Showing EXTREME GAMENESS be Part of DOY Candidacy?

[S_B]

But that is what is important to an individual Jack.

When you had a magazine devoted to the sport of dog fighting. One which reported shows and awarded certificates to the accomplishments of its winners. And created the DOY award it was those principles and accomplishments which were taken into consideration. Not which dog was #2 on that list.

How can we even begin to change what this award means? These dogs are bred to do #2, many of them do this. It is the elite few who accomplish what GR CH TITERE 7XW did who truly go above and beyond. There is no denying he won 7 and beat 7 other highly accomplished challengers.

Explain to me how one can determine who displayed the utter most gameness in a single show during a single year when so many other bulldogs were likely to take their death as well?

I think you're right too ... for the reasons you state ...





However, this is also right ... and therein lies The Paradox of Truth

Damn...I should have quoted this in my last post! Haha

I would like to say that this has been one of the most thought provoking threads to date on this board that I feel lucky to participate in. I don't believe there is a right or wrong answer to this poll how it was worded and presented by Jack. In a mere 6 days it has been viewed over 1,500 times with over 140 replies, that's incredible.

Everyone who contributed really put thought into their answers and that is what sets the members apart here verses other places. This is a community of folks who are obviously dedicated to this breed and it shows. We will never all agree but when we can come together and put our thoughts out there for all to see and criticize and agree to disagree without name calling and fights, that is a good thing.

Jack I'm proud of you for all the life long accomplishments you have achieved both on the scene and off the scene with these dogs. This database is becoming a front runner for you imo. I don't know you personally, and although you can be difficult at times your dedication can not be denied. That deserves an award in itself.

LMAO well, first of all, I think stubbornness is a pervasive trait in a legit dogman

But thank you for your opinion ... I definitely got bit to the bone by "the bulldog bug"

I also have never stopped in my quest for trying to understand/appreciate all aspects of these dogs, for which this Database was yet another attempt to improve on already-existing strengths of one site, and upgrade them to a new level.

I also think that, if we work out the kinks, and continue to streamline this place, that (over time) it will prove to be the ultimate online resource for bulldog owners worldwide, I really do

Cheers back
