Sgt. Stubby hero pitbull dog

Discussion in 'APBT History' started by Scratch Pattersons, Jun 23, 2018.

  1. I recently watched the Disney film Sgt. Stubby with my 3 year old. Ive known the story of Stubby from a good friend of mine, read it again here on the GDF, after watching the film based on the true story of the legendary pitbulldog sgt stubby, I’ve thought to myself this could possibly one of the gamest gamedogs bread to the core of gameness in the history of gamedogs known. Just from watching this Disney film you could see the quality of dog that was presented when it came to the front lines of war. Facing world war (WW1) a vicious war possible the most horrific war in the history of the world. Death toll nearing 35 million. You can see the qualities of gameness that this dog portraise”
    By February 1918, the 102nd was bunkering along the lines of Chemin des Dames, the French-held “ladies path” on the Western Front, nervously anticipating the Germans’ launch of a spring offensive. On St. Patrick’s Day, bells and klaxons, the signal of a poison gas attack, rang out along the hillside in the Marne where Stubby and Conroy were stationed. For a full 24 hours, German gas shells rained down. Somehow, the dog and his master survived. (Perhaps gas masks were to thank—man and dog alike were issued masks, though the New York Times reported that “Stubby’s physiognomy was of such peculiar contour that no mask could afford real satisfaction.”)

    It was at Chemin des Dames that Stubby reportedly saved the 102nd from a gas attack. The Times describes how one morning, while most of the troops were sleeping, the division was assaulted by an early morning gas launch. Stubby first smelled the gas then ran up and down the trenches barking and biting soldiers, working to rouse them from slumber and getting them to safety. On April 5 Stubby became a private first class, his first military rank.” [​IMG]

    Stubby’s rage at the sight of German prisoners of war was described as “savage.”

    But it’s curious question to ask as to what bloodline does Stubby come from, is his gameness not worth while? Could his blood line be one to the true core of gameness and can we find a pitbulldog with his blood today?
