I was just replying in context to the statement about “not training animals to kill each other” kinda thing. I think dogfighting is dumb, morally wrong— but sheepdogs kicking a coyote’s ass i have no problem with. Same for using them to hunt game, as long as you or your dog eats it or uses it constructively.
Well, before bullets were cheap, most hunting was done by dogs, who deal the lethal blows to the prey.
Fox hunting is still like that.
