heres my 2 cents on this thread... blue dogs to some extent have been around for a long time but they were /are rare in game bred dogs typically.now the dogs i saw many years ago that we called blue were more of a seal i guess but as someone else said earlier you can make color pretty easy in the breed if color is the focus. and someone also said amstaffs were bred to apbts to make the blue dogs. well all amstaffs trace back to apbts. do a ped search and go back far enough and you will find great pit dogs behind every single amstaff. and as for game dogs being a thing of the past i wouldnt say that as a law is just a law,lol. heck i see ads etc for all this mayday offspring and a friend of mine owns all the frozen mayday semen today. and as for gameness being spoke of. in the apbts/pitdogs it meant one thing and one thing only and that was against his own kind. now that being said i do feel there is another use of the word game and that is to me being game relative to the job/task the animal is being used in. so if you want to catch butterflys and your dog never quits a butterfly then hes game in that venue. same goes for catching hogs. but to say a dog that stays/is game on a hog is the same thing as a dog proovin it in the pit is just not true. only my opinion
x2...I agree
I now own a red red nosed pup that is a so called game bred pup and his sire and dam are weight pulling champions and this pup I know will catch and he acts just like I like them...He might not be dead game on another apbt but I am willing to bet he will be on a big boar...
