Agreed. I have never seen two non-bulldogs go at it for any thing more than a few seconds. And true, although they were in hold when I got there, and my wife said it had been non-stop since the beginning, the damage was minimal. Maybe as expected.
The heat was the thing for me. Exhaustion and fatigue get a lot of them. These two were blown completely out, gasping, like heat stroke on the way type hot.
We just put up the kennel. I let them out together while I was putting it together and they were like peas in a pod. Just hanging out. No issues.
I'm not sure what set it off.
I would stop short of calling these dogs game, but a long scratch in the heat, after pretty much complete expenditure, part of me wants to call them the G-word.
Agree also, the operative word is Dead Game is dead, not game.
I've seen some also that went this time but did not leave me to think they would go the next time. I had a Bolio/Snooty female once that had all the makings of a match dog except for her half-hearted scratches. Never once did she scratch with any intentions. It was I'm going and I will get there when I get there. She never failed to make one but I would have not been surprised if she did not that next time.
It was just wild to see that happen. I also admit if I were reading it, and not dealing with it, it would be a tough one to swallow.
