This is at an auction in England over the weekend



Interesting to see what it goes for.

Can't wait. I'm curious too. The chain is to help frustrate the dog. I've read about that. They do that down south to make the dogs mean. It trains them to be guard dogs.

Yes, but what get's the dog there!  They would chain a female and a male near one another. Just far enough where they can't touch one another. Being not neuter or spayed,  it would make them crazy. These people had several methods of making several into guard dogs, not just pits.

It's so sad what they do to Pit bulls.  The same used to be with Dobermans.  I had a Doberman that I will never forget or stop loving.  They are both such beautiful dogs.  I hate what people do to them.

I missed the damn thing because of a phone call. £160. Easily worth a few times more than that.

A similar bronze has fetched $2,000 recently.
