What's your take on the Michael Vick situation?
I too think he is guilty and is a disgrace to the APBT. It is people like him that give this breed and their heritage a bad rep.
Many people have a warped view of dog fighting due to people without knowlage and respect for for the dogs.
Originaly, dog fighting was a gentlman's sport in england. Later it moved to the US. Also, in the past dog fighting had rules and regulations much like boxing: there were weight classes, if the dog refused to fight it lost, and if a dog held a winning hold for too long the dogs were seperated, then the losing dog would have to want to fight more (scratch) or was concidered a loser.
Dogs rarely fought to the death, and the handler always had the right to forfit the match and get their dog.
In closing, people bred these dogs to fight; it is hardwired into their genetics. It is our responsability to care for these anamals, and not let them be ruined by "geheto minded" people like vick with no morals or standards.
