Description ...is all but a myth, in my world..."

GORE.GORE.GORE. Be warned.

This picture has 2 points.

My new character. He was a victim of the ring. What happens is this picture is his last fight. He is laying in the ring, destroyed, while people boo, and laugh at him. Once the other dog is taken out of the ring, his owner walks in. He wags what little of his tail he can, hoping that he did well. But, his owner pointed a gun at his head, and muttered, "...your worthless now..." and pulled the trigger.

BUT. He comes back to life, as what I call a Misery Trotter, but it can go by other names. More info about misery trotters later.

2ND POINT.
To prove the horrid case of dog fighting. This character is basically made to show the horrifying truth of the cruel blood sport.

Anyways, the blood spots are a brush I downloaded here from DA. Not mine.

This character has no name yet. Still working on it.

UPDATE: His name is Shyard: Ref: (Post Death) [link]

Just wanted to say, got back to my little Staff today, after a long walk and he flopped on my rug and i went to get him a drink. I came back into the sitting room with a bowl, and he did just what happened here.
He was so exhausted, he just wagged a tiny bit of his tail...and I smiled and gave him the water, before cooling him off.
But yeah, he was all like: "I did well, right?"

This really shows the horrors of dog fighting. I'll never understand how people can call it a "sport" or how the 'humans' can claim they love their dogs and then force them to do things like this.

I've seen videos on some of those programs on Animal Planet pretty close to the scene shown in your picture. :[ The poor pitty will be torn up and bloody, but when he sees his 'owner' tries wagging their tail as if to ask "Did I do good?". So effing heartbreaking. :[

Lelizadith In reply to Arixco [2011-05-02 09:57:15 +0000 UTC]

Yeah. Its disturbing how they can 'love' there dogs, and them listen to em scream. Not fair.

I've seen a few of those too. I usually had to change the channel if it when on for more than 20 seconds. I would get very heart broken. So many good dogs lost in this so called 'sport'.

That's not what a fought dog looks like...

Also, a dogman wouldn't crop his dog's ears. It exposes the ear canal to teeth. Therefor, gamedogs are generally left with natural ears.

Piss off. She can make her character HOWEVER she wants, realistic or not. Hell, she could make it wear a tutu and sparkly hair decorations if she wanted to. It's not yours to judge.

And fighting dogs is not cruel? You are disgusting.

You are correct that she can make the character however she wants.

As for the cruelty of matching dogs, don't paint everyone in the sport with a wide brush. It reveals how uneducated you are on the matter.

"Don't paint everyone in the sport with a wide brush..."

First of all, you're right, in a way. I don't know you personally - but I know that 'matching dogs' (in other words, dogfighting) is cruel in my mind, and the minds of many others. In fact, I don't know one person who enjoys or agrees with the "sport". Which brings me to another subject.

"Sport"? These animals are pets, darling. Dogs are bred for jobs, true, but they are loving animals that basically have no control over what their life with be like. You raise them like pigs for a slaughter, and fight them, and because they enjoy pleasing you, you mistake it for them 'enjoying' fighting each other.
Look at them. They are tearing each other apart, wounding themselves, and YOU are the cause of it. People like you who bred them to fight, bred them to battle until they die.
Would you 'enjoy' being forced to fight another man, usually until death? I assure you, it would not be 'enjoyable' for you. Many of the dogs forced into this are starved, and yes, many of them have clipped ears, whether you want to accept that or not. Maybe it is unhealthy to clip the ears, but it happens, and that's part of dogfighting to some people. You might consider it a sport, you might protect your dogs from 'harm' (though killing each other in a ring surrounded by greedy humans doesn't seem particularly harmless), but dogfighting is mostly used for money.
Money, money, money. Not a sport. It's a greedy way to sap money from dogs who don't know any better. Money for drugs.
And from your username + signature, I'm not sure if you're any different. Forgive me if I'm wrong.

Now tell me again, that dogfighting is not cruel, dogfighting is not unjust, dogfighting is perfectly fine, dogfighting is okay.



And if you still say it is, I'm afraid I'm not the one who's uneducated.

Its a character... each dog is different, just like every person is different. Just because they don't fit your standards and your opinions doesn't mean they don't fit other peoples standards and opinions.

And dog fighting is cruel either way, no matter how you crop the ears, or they way they look.

drugmoney In reply to Lelizadith [2011-04-30 13:15:26 +0000 UTC]

When done properly, and according to the most frequently used rules set down more than 100 years ago, no, matching dogs is not cruel.

And all I meant was, there's a lot of blood on the spine, and APBTs generally don't attack the spine. It's not impossible, though. Most of the points which are injured during a match are the face, chest, neck, and forelimbs. APBTs were bred with the instincts to go for the vital points during a dispute. I wasn't trying to put down your character.

Lelizadith In reply to drugmoney [2011-04-30 13:44:58 +0000 UTC]

I see.
But dogs are not just 'things', like they are to dog fighters. They do feel pain. They do feel sorrow. Most people say that they love to fight, but when you hear them scream in horror and pain in the ring... it doesn't sound like fun to me. At all.

And I kind of did go over board with the blood. Musical inspiration can be inspiring for me. Also I wasn't really trying to show the special places where they bite. I was just trying to get the point across he was fought, and near death :/ Thats it. I wasn't trying to seem like a wizz about they way they fight. I honestly try to avoid watching and looking at stuff about fighting, with bulls, dogs, roosters, because I'll just get angered. I have a pretty short temper.

Long story short; everyone has there different opinions, beliefs, and looks on things. I hope you don't get the sense I'm trying to fight with you or argue or what ever. Just making that clear, because I don't like to have enemies. ^^

drugmoney In reply to Lelizadith [2011-04-30 14:41:22 +0000 UTC]

Actually, old-time dogmen loved their dogs. They were gamedogs, but they were also pets. The APBT of today was bred to love people, and it was the same back when matching was legal. If you look in dog matching books, you'll see lots of pictures of dogs with children, in trucks, on couches, and so on.

Have you ever been to a dog match?
There is no screaming in horror/pain, no barking or growling.
Just the scuffle of paws on the floor and the sound of wresting dogs as they go to the task they were born to do.
I've seen media reports with videos of dog fighting, and then the raw videos, where the media has added dog fighting noises to the tape to make it seem worse.
To be honest, I actually do not like dog matching. I just think people should realize that it isn't what the media proclaims it to be, although thanks to the media there are some punks who have gotten bad ideas and try to be "big and tough dog fighters" who do harm to the breed, the individual dogs, and the dogmen of old. Until the media said so, there was no such thing as a bait dog. The same goes for feeding dogs gunpowder... and beating dogs "to make them mean". They said on the news that dogfighters did that... and punks heard it and said, "Oh, that's a good idea." Self-fulfilling prophecy.

And, I understand. The art is actually very good, I hope I didn't come off as insulting it or you.

Lelizadith In reply to drugmoney [2011-05-01 14:19:14 +0000 UTC]

I could see how that is. And I have to agree that the media does over saturate things. But I just can not stand the thought of dogs killing each other for sport.

And I have never been to one, and honestly I don't want to. When I was young though, I did witness a fighting dog attack my friends dog. Her own dog would have died if we wouldn't have rushed it to the vet. I have no idea though of what happened to the dog. :/ I just don't think I would have the heart to ever go to one though.

Thank you btw ^^ Also trust me, I understand. I know your not me or the artwork at all! I try not to get in fights over the web. Its a bit rdiculious. Plus to add the fact, I rarely fight at all, Don't like to hurt peoples feelings for there understandings and beliefs.

drugmoney In reply to Lelizadith [2011-05-01 21:55:01 +0000 UTC]

The dogs don't kill each other unless the handler is an idiot who doesn't know when to pick up his dog. Seriously. Usually, the dogs don't die. Who wants to lose a good dog who could otherwise go on to produce champions?

It's a blood sport and it's not for everyone. But to be honest, most dogmen treat their animals better than most pet owners. Their dogs are very well cared for.

And, I don't like to fight online (or at all) as well, I like civilized discussion, and I just like to put real information out there...

I wasn't "defending" anything. I was just debunking all the myths and lies about dog fighting. It's not as brutal as people claim it to be.
No, it's not particularly humane. I don't like dog matching. I never want to see a pit contest. But just because you don't like something, doesn't give you the right to spread lies about it.
I DO love Pit Bulls, and the breed was formed by dogmen, fighting their dogs. That's just a fact about the breed. They were bred to fight and some people put them to the use that they were bred for. I don't like it but it's the truth and if you can't accept that, get a poodle.

Lelizadith In reply to drugmoney [2011-05-01 23:20:00 +0000 UTC]

Hmm, I see. Usually were I live though, they DO fight em to the death, or NEAR death. Alot of times they do kill them though, if there to far injured and such. :/

Yeah, I could NEVER go to one. I would probably go insane. Real live gored isn't really my thing. I can't even watch Gorey movies much of the time.

I'm also glad to find someone who isn't going to fight online. ^^ Just giving information is alot of times confused with arguments. Most immature people do make them fights though. I've seen quite alot of that stuff on here. Its not very impressive to see arguments on deviations, forums, ect. You know?

They don't follow the rules, they just need a dog to feel tough.
So they fight them.
