I call my dogs what I want to I raised them I feed them I clean up after them I sweat beside them i work them....stop worrying what the next man is saying or doing that is why it is hard to even own a APBT people dont know how to mind there own business everybody wants the attention of owning a pit bull the hype IMO only a fucktard hypes the fact he owns game bred dogs out of sight is out of mind.
Food for thought!
Everyone can call their dogs what they wish. However, gamedogs, the sport from historical point of view, the history, the men and women behind these great warriors and the men that put out books, magazines and databases to preserve it all is everyones business.
When someone posts a pic of GR CH Buck and asks, "Name this hound," that is retarded!

Calling a German shepherd a "hound" is just as retarded as calling a bulldog a hound.
There are many people who say ignorant, stupid shit on a daily basis ... and, if you enjoy being amongst that group, you're correct it is your right to be amongst said group of retards ... but it doesn't mean people who know better need to join that group.
Some people care enough about what they're talking about to attempt to speak with precision and make important distinctions

The only thing that gets under my skin is everybody has there opinion on how somebody else needs to conduct themselves but the guidelines don't apply to them you want people to show respect but you disrespect them in the process of the request and I'm the ignorant one lol every man is right in his own eyes have at it
I see I need to clarify everything for you. First, it was to point out that bulldogs are not hounds. This isn't an opinion, it is a fact.
Now you're saying it is ignorant to be disrespectful, so let me help you think accurately once more:
Ignorance = ignorance (being wrong and not knowing any better)
Being disrespectful = being disrespectful (not treating people with dignity)
They're not the same thing either
Now then, if you want to call me a hypocrite, for being a tad disrespectful, when I expect people to be respectful, then I am guilty as charged
However, being a hypocrite isn't being ignorant either, lol, so you have some real trouble understanding your words and applying them correctly
So, as a recap, here is what we've learned today:
Hounds are dogs.
Pit bulls are dogs
But pit bulls are not hounds and hounds are not pit bulls.
And it is IGNORANT to say or think otherwise.
Ignorance is not disrespect, and disrespect is not ignorance, and it is IGNORANT to interchange these words as if they mean the same thing.
However, making rules that you expect others to follow, and then not following them yourself, is HYPOCRITICAL, and I agree

Not to change the subject because I agree with the name BULLDOG is title that is earned not given to each and every American Pit Bull Terrier.
To call a GSD hound is not retarded as it may seem in it's country of final completion of standard it's called the Deutsch Schäferhund as most dogs in that country are called hund or pronounced hound as it refers to a dog. Even in the sport of Schutzhund all dogs are given the titles when earned of Portection Hound (Schutzhund) Schutzhund I , II , or III once the testing and titles have been earned.
My stance on the title BULLDOG is that it has to be earned not given to each and every dog that someone walks up with and there is only one way to earn such a title and let's face it most owners do not have the intestinal fortitude to see if their dogs deserve this title. So to me for some to call their POS a BULLDOG is a insult.
Agreed.
Interesting. But that is Germany, and you're talking a title. Also, I believe the German word "hund" is more akin to our word, DOG, and is not referring to the "specific kind" of dog, Hound.
Dogs are separated into groups, with hounds being a certain group of dog, in which the APBT does not belong.
I hear what you're saying, and I agree but disagree.
I agree to call a dog a BULLDOG is to bestow a sense of honor on the animal, but they are still called "bulldogs," regardless.
For example, I may say to you, "How many bulldogs you feeding?", meaning your yard of dogs in total, and you may say, "Twenty."
Now as we go through your yard, you might be saying this one's name, and that one's name, telling me how it's bred, etc. ... and then you may come upon one in particular and say, "Now this one right here's A BULLDOG!", implying he is a cut above the rest as to his proven gameness.
So the word, "Bulldog," is used by dogmen to speak of their dogs in general, but it is also emphasized when we step up to one who's really impressed us.
