Defination Of Gameness

A game dog has no fear of "Man", nor "Beast ", "Life", or "death". Although he has no fear of "Death" he will fight for "Life", be it his or his master's. A game dog has no master other than man, his closest ally and companion, and to man he gives his all. He chooses no other creature but man for this position.

His willingness to fight to the death, if he must, is not a lack of intelligence but a deep game inward strength that is difficult to comprehend. A game dog is a beautiful thing to behold. Not always a physical beauty, its much more than that, its an inward beauty.

A game dog has been described many different ways; "Tenacity", "Having Heart", "A Strong Will To Survive" and of course just plain "Vicious", just to name a few!!! But call it what you will, true gameness is a treasure rarer than gold or precious gem.

Gameness reaches past the mind, past the heart the soul and nerves, it resides deep into the depths of the spirit. Gameness cannot be seen by looking at the dog's color or confirmation, it cannot be seen in the shape of his head or the size and strength of his body; nor is it proven by the show of aggresion or the ability to do damage.

Gameness is a quality inherent in some but not in others. Its a quality that when found must be cherished and cared for, it must be preserved for all time, not destroyed as some would have it, out of fear and mis- understanding. Those who would destroy this admirable quality cannot have experienced that deep feeling that touches the very soul when deep gameness is displayed, it is sad but few ever will.
Perhaps their disdain is rooted in fear and misconception. But one thing is certain, if these poor, misguided individuals had any understanding of this noble God given quality, they to would be shocked at themselves for ever given thought of the demise of the game dog.

So long live gameness and the creatures that possess it and if the care takers of it are even half as game as the dogs they posess, it will live on forever.....JMAN
