The most confused terms in relation to Pit Bulls is probably gameness. Most people misconstrue the term as representing the dogs courage, fight ability, or endurance in the pit, but it is the never quit attitude and fight-to-the-death personality. (Fight-to-the-death does not necessarily mean in the pit, either.) Game bred dogs were not necessarily the best in the pit, but they were the ones with the most fight in them. Gameness makes a small dog able to take on a much larger dog and ultimately win. Gameness is the willingness to continue and persevere in any activity, whether fighting, hunting, herding, pulling a cart, or defending its owner, while being put through great stress and/or intense pain until he has won or until death. Gameness has nothing to do with ability or bravery; it has to do with heart. Gameness is the trait that is basically the determination to complete a task through pain and stress even if it means death. Game-bred dogs do not submit. These dogs are dominant (not necessarily aggressive). Game-bred dogs never give up.
