Your not a Dog Man If?

    I have setback and watched for years as some men have gained notoriety and fame within this game ,all off there ability to affiliate themselves with successful dogmen or they were able to transform themselves into a modern day Don king. I began to think about this as i was reading one of the magazines affiliated with this game that we love and as I read a rant from the editor, about how qualified he was to be able to speak about this game. I then came to the realization that this guy has bamboozled a lot of people into thinking he is or was a great dogman. this is just my opinion but If you have never personally conditioned a dog and took it to the box and won or lost well then are you really a dogman. if you simply have a lot of money and you go around buying dogs does that make you a dogman. if you are simply affiliated with a group of guys that are good dogmen does that make you in turn a good dogman. these are the things that come to mind on this day, because in my opinion you have to do it all to be considered a dogman.
    1.Breed your own
    2.Win with your own
    3.Condition your own dogs
    If your not doing these 3 things then your not a dogman.

    Wait a minute...Do you not realize that you are in essence commiting the same act as the guy in the magazine that led you to open this thread. If you have a low opinion of him for what he did then think about what you are doing with this thread by authoritatively stating in a numbered list what it takes to be a dogman.

    Depends on what you consider a dogman ... if that's all it takes where you come from ... you have it easy.

    My opinion guys and all I was basically saying is if your not doing it all your not a dogman, you are just involved

    There is an interview out there where to be a dogman you have to make your own collars, built your own mills, etc. etc. etc.

    The definition of dog man is as subjective as any other in the game.

    I'm 'to each his own, as it takes all kinds'.

    As Slim said, the word dog man is definitely subjective. What one considers a dog man, the next man might disagree.

    I feel strongly about giving the dogs great care throughout their life. I think that should be everybody's main concern. Not about wins or losses, or who can make their own collars or mills. I think people should strive to give their dogs the best care that they can afford to give. And if you are doing that, you are a dog man in my book.

    If you breed your own, school your own, condition your own, and win with your own but take shitty care of your dogs then IMO you are not a dog man in my book. And if you are, you're a shitty one to say the least. Just my opinion.

    Just reading all those magazines,books and internet articles can give one a false sense of what is actually going on in reality especially if one has no hands on experience and just going by what they read in all those over glorified stories but never experienced any of it themselves....I am not saying it to you directly but in general.

    There is only one thing that separates a dog man from any other dog owner. Any dog owner can breed a dog.....Any dog owner can condition there dog.....There is only one type of owner that does a activity that is illegal and a felony in all 50 states and that is what separates a Dogman from just a man with dogs.

    Any other reason is subjective like having a really clean yard and that one picks up dog shit every day or that one massages his dogs balls with his tongue etc etc...LMAO

    What about hog hunters, are they not dog men? Small game hunters, they aren't either? Just curious.

    NO, Hog hunters is basically what it sounds like they Hunt Hogs....small game hunters are they same they just hunt smaller game.....neither of those activities is illegal at least not yet. LOL....hunters can hunt with or without dogs....the dogs just make it easier for a hunter in certain situations but they are not mandatory.

    Hunters=hunt prey with or without the aid of dogs.
    Dogmen= dog fighting

    Certain things are FACTS and certain things are SUBJECTIVE.

    A Dogman is one who fights dogs that is not subjective but a fact, every thing else is subjective because it does not work the other way around....You see you can do every thing else in the world with your dogs but unless you actually fight your dogs you are not a dogman period....Same goes for Hunters, if one has never hunted in ones life then one is not a hunter no matter how many books or videos one has read and watched. LOL This goes for ANY ACTIVITY one does in life.

    Cmon Treez you should know better then that. LOL

    All I'm saying is I have friends who use bulldogs to catch hogs and in their opinion, and others, they are dog men. And who am I to tell them any different? They are dog men because they're using dogs to catch wild animals. Maybe not by some people's standards but to other people's, they are. I get your point and agree to a certain extent. I know you take very good care of your patt and chi so I consider you a dog man, is that fair enough? LOL JK, bro.

    This is childish to its finest. Any real dogman know u are full of it.
    If u don't do this.
    If u don't do that.
    Bull shit
    Mayfield 1 of the best conditioners not a top notch breeder on his own.

    Robert L. Millmaker 1 of the best conditioners of his time. Never been a breeder.

    Clemmons good breeder in his day never matched, never conditioned a dog during his
    hay day

    ChickenSam of Texas never handled a hound but had some of the best blood around in his day.
    Not every 1 is well rounded in this game. These hounds would be better off with people who are being real with them selves and staying in there lanes and respect what thay are.
    The word Dogman has been used looser than a 50year old hooker.

    Well like I said its not all subjective as some things are facts....I dont know your friends definition of what he thinks a dogman is but in the world of the Game Bred APBT the term dog man is one who fights dogs.

    We are now living in a delusional world were people think they are something they are really not and the only thing that matters is ones opinion regardless of the FACTS.

    Its like me walking my chihuahau down the street and someone saying that is a nice chihuahua and me saying no its not a chihuahua but a giant rat which makes my opinion subjective but not a fact. LMAO.....Fact is she is a chihuahua mix....subjective is she is from the Mexican strain known as No Mas El guapo strain. LMAO
