Topic: Would you bet on a dog fight? (Read 626 times)

I would not even be interested in this whatsoever

And OP why do you think this would be popular with bitcoin?? Please tell me not because it's an illegal sport or whatever it's called!

If you ask me such illegalities are likely to be run with fiat not bitcoin which might be inconvenient with its long conformation times.

Where were you lurking to see such thing that requires Bitcoin as payment in gambling? I guess you were in the black market looking those inhuman acts forcing those poor dogs fighting each other. I don't know if you are aware of the animal welfare thing and of course, it is illegal but whatever your reason is i still don't like the idea of animals fighting each other with the presence of human cheering to kill each other.

I can't bet I have an intimate passion towards dogs, If there is a race, I will definitely bet, but fighting is not, There must be mutual love between animals

Same as you I like dogs and I use to keep some dogs at home but as I know my dogs are now strong enough to win so I will not hesitate to spend them fight. I also like insects fight but people bet small amount for insects fight i would love to invest on dogs fight and you also should train your dogs for it.

You completely right, a man best friend is a dog and even me I can't dare my dog to let fight and hoping some profit in exchange on his life if can't lucky to survive the fight. Dogs are so kind and it also protects you from the thieves in your house. There are many dogs now use by the government authorities using to identify either bomb or drugs. So, they are very useful animals and might help the community. So, if you see a dog fight in your country and it is prohibited, kindly report to the authority and help the dogs out of trouble.
You can't dare to lose your sweet dog like this.

Yeah there is mate and this is popular in some countries in Asia and I guess Europe as well when two Dogs  either different breeds or the same(but mostly uses Pitbull)the dogs will fight until one retreat or dump already.and this is really a sudden game
Yeah same here because I am a dog lover and I have couple of dogs with me ,I use to make them as family members and my family loves them also

If you ever watch dog betting you would understand that its one of the most interesting animal bets. There’s noting like maltreatment on the side of the animals, after all wrestlers do same, this dogs are only fighting to show how powerful they are or to prove their strength while viewers are been entertained.

Also multicultural world has nothing to do with particular regions belief and traditions, as long as the game means no harm and entertaining, it is justified and accepted and I would definitely bet on it if I am opportune to be where it is played. The most important thing in gambling is to make money and once we see any means that brings this, then its welcomed.

For animal race the its just fine but for life and death battle then it isn't okay for me.Im also an animal lover too and I cant really dare to watch these animals do fight just for the sake of entertainment and gamble.

There are some better options to bet on and each country does have similar views on what we say here that's why its been banned or make it illegal since we know
that dogs don't live with that purpose.

It's illegal in our country bit I watched on Tv where organizers and supporters are put on jail and charge for setting up betting for dog fights, it's animal cruelty and I can be put in jail for patronizing this so no I would not even think of betting.

Bet in a life-and-death battle between animals is one thing we shouldn't, that scene can make many people excited and become more out of control but I always feel it's something that doesn't fit my nature, more precisely, I'm a dog lover, even love animals, so I dare to look at such battles, it makes me very uncomfortable and sometimes a little painful. Bet in a race can also be good but in my country does not encourage, and I do not want to stick to those games, my conscience does not allow it, it is best to be normal gambling games, the mood will be better

Here in my country though not legalize but we are all free to do such gambling act without repercussion. In think nothing is legal here base on the game, saying that it's illegal, then what about the fight of humanity to humanity and we still place bet when they are in the ring.

I wouldn't like to make any bet for fighting sport (human or animals).
I think its better use bitcoin betting for animal racing.
For animals betting, I like for dog/bulls racing or contest.
Here (Indonesia), some people use their money for betting at traditional bulls racing. And of course, it's illegal to use bet here. But people will find the way.

No, of course, I'm not a gamble type person and with so much love for dogs that will be cruel for me to watch it. Never come across any dog fight gambling but here in my town street dogs fighting between mating season is so common. I will bet somehow if my dog will go compete over a race.

Dog fight is not a common game for me so I would never bet on a game like that if I had the chance to see it. Indeed, there are animals fight in gambling but not with dog. Btw, I never see dog fight as a gambling medium in my whole life.

I don't know if there are existing cultures where dog fighting is considered "traditional" like cockfighting or horse wrestling but if there is, I personally wouldn't participate.

I'm not going to "judge" them (some breeds like pitbulls originally started as fighting breeds) but I would prefer dogs as companion animals. Call it "double-standard" but yeah...

Personally, I will definitely bet on it if the money is encouraging,  I think I need to know reasons why this isn’t made legal in some countries, or maybe the countries dog fighting is not legal does not accept gambling generally because if they do, then I do not see any reason why this should be exempted. All games are fun, regardless what is used in playing, if humans bet on themselves, we bets on bulls and all kinds then why not dogs bet?

My aim of gambling is to have fun and make money, so whatever that is brought up to achieve this goal with be welcomed wholeheartedly be me. I just started my research on this because it’s strange to me, once I have learnt and seen chances of winning, I would definitely kick start.

I think animal fighting event are less these days and they care only popular in third world countries. Personally i am also against this type of games which involve blood and then betting and enjoying on it is even more painful.

Why would you make dogs this bad thing to them?
It is not entertainment to make dogs fighting.
I would never gamble on this event and I would be the one who will report it if I notice it happening.

I have watched a legal dog fighting once and the fight done once of the dog dies so I hate to see it, dog is a pet not an animal to be used for that fight gambling. Probably dog race is better than dog fighting. Even if I like to see but still I wont bet on it because it is just like a blind betting for me because only those who owns the dog knows how strong the dog is as well as how strong the opponent. I believe any kind of animal fighting is illegal in most countries.

Well, the good thing to know that we are almost the same and we are the same country which animal cruelty is not allowed. I am a pet lover too and actually, I have 4 dogs in my house. So literally, it is sad to watch a dog fight just because of betting. Indeed, this is also illegal in our country. So I think there is nothing to worry about that matter here.

No, I don't condone this type of game, it's so brutal because I myself is a dog lover and I feel that dogs should be love because it's a man's best friend.
Also, I think this kind of game is illegal, and in our country, this is a law about animal cruelty.

https://www.manilatimes.net/legal-consequences-of-animal-cruelty/222986/

Sadly, it's a part of some country's culture. The good thing is that more and more people are now standing up and speaking up to this kinf of gambling. I wouldn't bet a single penny in support of such barbaric acts but not all people think alike. In modern society, im sure people will have the same sentiment. But these dogfight bets usually happen underground under the noses of the authorities.

Cruelty while watching how the two fighting dogs will try to save once lives not sure if how that can be an entertaining things to watch, might be just because of money that can be gamble so there's still people who manage to bets and enjoy the winning that they've got after the fights, its between the owners and those who wanted to gamble their money and pets.

No way. That is downright sad and anyone betting on such things are sadistic and inhumane. I would rather prefer betting on those sadistic person fighting each other to death. Why would someone even think about dog fights for entertainment. Not to mention its illegal in most part of the world.
And how do you know it is popular with bitcoin and gambling? I haven't seen any place or sites offering such bets.

In my country it is legal to bet on animals fighting but I don't think people really do bet on a dog fight here. I have watched competitions on dog fights but it is not something I really will like to bet on as I see it as animal cruelty! Some people may see it otherwise but I do pity animals especially when human beings are taking advantage of them.

Could that be that you cannot also bet on humans fight because they fight sometimes beyond our imagination and even go to that extend to harm themselves before the medical team will advance for treatment. Even sometimes, get themselves injured till the opponent surrendered. This actions are not far weight than that of the dog.

I don't think dogs are animals for fighting, dogs have different characteristics from chickens. Maybe we often see cockfighting, yeah because chickens have a type of fighting chickens, but not with dogs. Dogs are more specialized for tracking because their sense of smell is stronger than other animals.

And for me animal battles are unethical because we are pitting living things. In my belief and state rules, animal fighting is strictly prohibited and has laws that protect these animals.

As much as I want to be completely unbiased towards the act, I am against any kind of gambling which involves animal fighting. I do not support these kinds of activities as they embody and reflect on what kind of society are we in the present days.

If there are people supporting/gambling in this type of event, I kindly ask to reconsider their decision and realize that there are various of gamblings around the world. Dog fighting or any kind of dangerous sport which involves killing does not have to be a type of gambling.


At the end of the day, regardless on whether they are animals or not, if it involves life/death then I am completely against it. Respect for animal lives will reflect the character of our society and shape on what we want in the future.

Maybe that is why governments make gambling is illegal especially for animal fight. See animal fight each other and we human bet on it i think it is againts humanity and that animals not deserved to get it. Dogs, cock, or any animals can't be abused only for benefit of humans and must be treated as well as possible. Maybe for dog bet we can bet on their skills like obstacle course or catch the ball.

I don't think I can stand watching two dogs fight each other, of course, dogs also fight, but when you put two dogs in betting, the organizers will make sure that anyone of them will get killed to have a winner, I think they are using drugs and undergo these dogs to harsh condition so that they become wild.

What do you mean favoritism? With who I would be betting? Lol. Anyways, there is no favoritism on my part, whether I'm going to eat or not, the usual only food only. I'm not vegan and I eat the common meat that we have in this world. Cows, Pigs, and Chickens are being farmed continuously unlike dogs. I don't have many sayings with that but that's the truth.

I hope it stops. I still do think that it's Animal Cruelty.

As other people say, I would never bet on a dog fight. Almost all people love a dog, people care with a dog, and they don't want to hurt dog too. Besides that, I think the dog fight is not legal in many countries because of the sense of humanity. Many people feel they are bond with the dog, and if they find or they see a dog fight, I guess that will break their heart, and they will say that fight needs to stop and don't allow the dog fight. We can gamble for another thing, and I think using the animal as a bet is not a good thing.

I don't think I can, I am very fond of dogs we have two dogs in our house and we consider them a part of our family, they are one of the kindest animals in our planet, it's illegal here in our country and I guess it's also illegal in many countries too.

I can bet on insects and human combats, on human competition like Boxing and MMA they are under strict supervision, they have physician, referees to make sure no one gets badly hurt, and they understand what they are getting into, on a dog fight it's about killing each other, I don't go for that.

No, nor would I ever bet on any sort of other animal fighting. Just cruel for the animals that are fighting, and that cruelty takes away any interest I have in the game. I've never seen a live dog fight in my life, and I hope I won't ever have to in the future. The quicker this sort of betting dies out, the better. I've also never seen anywhere in the cryptoverse allowing you to bet on dog fights with BTC, dunno what OP's talking about.

First and foremost reason, it is banned in our country.

Another thing is that I am not used to this kind of game. I don't like to watch this kind of fight since I love dogs, I have a pet dog and I am imagining seeing that dog fight, I would see my dog fighting there and I can't stand it. Even the idea of eating a dog, I am not into that too. I can watch a rooster fight, but a dog? No, I can't stand that.

I'd love dog and I will never let them fighting, though its scary to witness a big dos fighting but as much as possible I will stop them. Its better to bet on something else guys, don't let this animal fight to each other. Dog is my favorite animal, we make memories together and I'm willing to adopt new dogs.

No, I will not I am a dog lover and we have three dogs in our house and I can see my dogs in that scenario if I'll watch a dog fight I'm ok with boxing because it has a referee, but never on a dog fight because they will kill each other and that's how that dog fight is, it's not over until they kill each other.

Dogs are on the food menu in some countries, not every culture is the same.   They eat horses in other countries, I guess it varies but I wouldnt bet on any false fighting scenario like this because its far too irregular.

Also because its very likely to be cruel, far too random and prone to sabotage to rig the odds.   Its not a good idea, stick to horse racing tbh

Dog is man’s bestfriend so its not good to see them fighting because of their owner wants them to do so and earn small money. I’d rather lose in gambling that to see this one, also dogs are night active on fighting for sure they will just make love if ever. We need to protect animals from this kind of cruelty.

You are a good person with a big heart though not all of the people in this world are like you, not all of them have the same perspective of animal or life as you. There are a lot of people abusing animals, abusing our planet and even abusing their countrymen or other humans. As far as I know, this type of gambling is popular in Mexico in the past but I read an article that it is banned now so most of the time, dogfighting is done illegally and the usual here is the "underground dog fight".

Most of the audience will not like it, Instance using dog fight why not try to make a gambling dog race.

That's would be good than animal abuse, Cause dog was a pet animal like Cat. Everyone will not really happy went they see a dog used for a gambling fight animal.

Nope i play gambling and i bet any kind of gamble, i hate to seen dog fighting because for me dog is man bestfriend and I am a dog lover I treat dog as important animal.

I have never watched a dog fight til now.
And you are right, someone can't really stand such type of fight because of the nature of the battle and considering that dogs are close to human.
Maybe, this is the reason why they are not supported to be a legal gambling fight and most are happening only in the underworld so to speak.

If you considered the dog as the human friends and you can't watch them.fight, please permit me to ask, what of you betting for.humans to.human fight? Sometimes, we should represent our real life on this forum than just doing things all because of increase post for.payment.

NEVER... I love betting but won't put my money to bet on animal battles... I am a person who really loves dogs and one of the members of animal lovers in my city. I can't imagine if there is a group of people who make dog battles as bets, it is definitely not human. 

Idk but rosters fight is more interesting 

I fully support this ideology and these kind of fighting should be prohibited except if the two rivals could make a written consent

This is real guys. I've been able to watch it live way back in my high school days when dogfighting is still a gambling hype here in my country. The arena can be anywhere, even at the large backyard of the house, a vacant lot, etc. as long as it's hidden since it's illegal. But that is just a minor competition. The major ones held in much large arena.

This type of gambling needs lots of money as owners will do anything just to enhanced and maintain their dog's physical condition and make it strong in the day of the fight.

Only a few people are allowed to watch. As much as possible, limited audience. The dog's breed is mostly Pitbull. There is also a weight limit. The arena is large, maybe 2 to 3 times on size of a cockfighting arena. The same system applied too like in cockfighting, battle till death.

This is cruel and I can't stand to watch. The whole arena will smell blood and you can even smell that bloody thing after you get out. Yes, sort of registering it in your nose buds even once you got home. Only watched it once since I accompanied my friend and obviously, out of curiosity how's the dogfight was performed. Never did try to watch it again. Today, I believed the dogfighting industry here is now closed on being dead. Never heard any related thing to that for several years now but I know there is still small operation exist.

The dog is a close friend to a human and usually human pet is a dog. I don't want to abuse dogs that become animal cruelty. I won't support that kind of betting because I feel pity if I saw dogs fight. Much better if I saw dog fight I will report to the authorities. You can choose insects fight or the most common is cockfighting which allows anywhere in the country. If you support this kind of betting I don't know if you are still a human. I hope no one does this.

Nope, I would not do that, I can bet on anything but not on dogs and cats I consider this two as part of a family and man's best friends, and it'\s illegal in so many countries, there will never be a legal dog fight in any country, because we all know that dogs and cats are very much different from the other animals.

Dog have some rights from other side of the world, so it's really depends from legality of the game, if the government do allowed this and let gamblers to bets for sure people from that place still have interest, we do have different view about this kind of gambling practice for me I'm not going to enjoy seeing a good buddy fights for life for the sake of money.

No I think this is a very disgusting act to allow and for any person who supports it as well
Mans best friend deserves so much more then to be thrown into a pit for drunk gamblers to bet on their lifes for money.
Its a shame to me that this does go on in our sick world and I would hope no one supports such horrible things

No, animal fighting isn't funny and it's more like crime because you want other dog dead or bleeding after the fight.
..... but in my country there are few people who betting on chicken fight

Ive seen cockfighting,ants fights which i do see considerable thing rather than betting on a dog fight.This isnt a livestock but rather a mans bestfriend
which isnt suit out for them to fight to the death.I do see some videos of these dog fights which i cant dare to see it for long.So its a big NO for me
when you do ask me when it comes on betting on it.

It is not legal in our country too as far as I know. Dogs are one of the animals that are so close to human and seeing them fight each other in a ring is just brutal for me to watch so I don't wanna bet on it, I don't even want to watch that fight.


Really? Any proofs to back this up? This is the first time I know that.

Dog is friendly pets for human even they were very loyal to the human who feeds and maintain them and i personally will never bets for dog fight because for me seeing them fight is too violatile however there was animal sport called dog races in the particular country and if they only racing i think i willing bets for them

I'll agree with you if you are a vegan but if you show certain animals favoritism I think that is really unfair.  There are people that want to protect dogs but then they go and eat chickens and beef.

Dog fighting still happens in America and rings are still being busted.

I doubt it is popular in this community since I have never seen or heard a dog fight gambling being advertise or being mentioned in the forum and
other bitcoin community. I don't doubt that there might be some gambling sites that provide these types gambling and also accept crypto-currency.
and if ever stumbled upon one of these kind of gambling site I will surely be disgusted by who ever is running that site.

This should stop! Honestly, I don't think this is going to be justified by simply saying this is culture-based and so has to be respected because we are a multicultural world. We are a civilized world already. We do not take fun from the pain or even death of animals. This should be banned!

I will never bet, much less watch, dog fights! I'd rather watch and even bet big if its the owners who'll fight it out!

yes why not   ?  there are places that dog fighting/betting is legal and they have certificates or permits to show  . some of them do also have a protector , these protectors are usually big guys like for example police  , mayors  , or other government officials  so that no one can question them  . the bets that made on this game were also expensive when compare to other normal animal fights because most bettors involved were also big people  .

Dog fights or animal fights in general are such a no go with all the suffering involved. I would rather like to see the dogs have a good time with a race and bet on that as stated above.

I would never bet on that. I would also not have a problem ratting out the organizers to the police if I found out about it.
I can't believe that bull fighting is still legal in some countries. I heard that it is no longer allowed in Spain, is that true?

I don't want to be on a dog fight or the other animals. It is better to bet on the other things. I feel that I don't have a human sense if I do that, but we have a different opinion, and maybe the other people will do that. There are a lot of things that we can use to gamble, and I am sure that things will give fun things for us.

Lol, that's so brutal of you my friend. Dogs are considered to be man's best friend and seeing them fight is horrible and i don't think there is a country that say's that it is their tradition to let dogs fight. Even if there is a gambling site for dog fight, i won't bet on this.

Definitely NO! I am not insane enought to bet on such dogfights because it was more cruel than cockfights. I can't stand watching dogs biting each other especially that I'm now halfway conquering my cynophobia. Besides, like what've you said, it was illegal on most places and my country also not tolerating this stuff so I will never try it. Here, proven guilty on animal cruelty get you jailed for 6 mo. to 2 yrs. but I don't know if it's the same for the bettors and othe people related into it.

How is it popular when almost no one acknowledges they have heard of it? Even I haven't heard of it, and I know that there are people who cook and eat it. Disgusting though.

Anyway, I haven't heard any of this. I quickly Googled something and found this article. A Closer Look at Dogfighting. It's more secretive than you think.

Even if there's a great chance to win money in this kind of fight, I won't support Animal Cruelty.

It's a big no for me. I have pet dogs at home and I can't stand a second watching or even hearing them fight. And even though it's not my dogs, I wouldn't be pleased to see  them fight. Dogs are considered as man's best friend and I think it should stay that way and not let them get into fights with other dogs. Their welfare should be taken care of, as well. I don't think that dog fights are legal and whether legal or not, I won't bet on it. Not even a single penny.

Honestly, the only kind of animal related sports that I am interested in are races(Horse racing, Greyhound racing etc) and I do not support fights between them just so that we can earn a little bit of money.

Cock fights are usually popular in many countries followed by bull fights etc and majority of these fights end up one or both animals getting severely injured just for our own entertainment. Its pathetic and not entertaining in my opinion at all.

Well, in my country that is illegal and the dog was protected by our government not being abuse and the dog fight may consider as an abusement of the animals. I will not support of betting dog fight because that might the reason for putting in jail. You can bet anything and there is a cockfight that there is no law against that fight that you support to bet. There is a law here in the Philippines about animal welfare.
Here is a link [ Republic Act No. 8485 ]

No, it is illegal and I still have a heart to not include dogs from my gambling habits. If authorities find out that someone is conducting this activity anyone involved might be responsible and will be forced to pay some charges.

Probably it could be some sort of business based on the (pseudo) anonymity of Bitcoin to avoid law (although if one is sloppy, with Bitcoin it can be caught).
But no, I find animal fighting barbaric, not fit for current century and would not bet on it. All such "businesses" can do for Bitcoin is to taint its name.

There are countries protecting dogs because the dog is a human-friendly animal. And also there is a law that protects animals and I think it is impossible to have a dog fight legally. Unless, if they are going to have fight hidden from the government because that is punishable by the government once you have caught. There is a law regarding animal welfare act, you can read this link because there is a penalty on that. https://thepoultrysite.com/news/2019/06/gove-delivers-new-bill-to-punish-animal-abusers

Yes, I will bet on dog fights. Only if the dog fights its human owners while the human has his hands and legs both tied. I want such humans to die a slow, painful and excruciatingly horrible death.

Do you know of any country that legalized it? Which crypto gambling site is it listed? I haven't heard one. Dog fights are usually done underground.

I won't bet even if it becomes legal.

Not trying to go the way of Michael Vick, so that's a no from me.

I don't think anyone is going to be able to bet on two dogs fighting. You can get some countries and areas OKAY with cock fighting or anything  along those lines. But those fluffy pets that you buy for your kids fighting one another to the death --> Yeah, that's not going to fly.

Haven't found this kind of betting on a casino and I wouldn't bet if there is.

Every country has their own rule regarding dog fights and we're all aware that this is animal cruelty because there is physical harm involve. And a bad situation can exist with it and one or even both of the dogs can die on the spot.

even on the t.v's or the movies ?  i have never seen a live dog fight but ive seen several examples when i watched on the t.v and on the movies  .  the reason why its rare because its illegal   . not only dog betting fights itself but also dog trading or those who buy and sell dogs aside from these  , killing dogs for meats and to those who buy and ate are also illegal  . anyone caught by the authorities will be penalized and punished  .  so my answer would be a big no  .

Is anywhere such things exist?

I really don't heard about dog fighting only seen dog races which looks same as horse betting but never seen such game like fight between two dogs.

I won't bet as well even if it exists.

No I would not. It's where the humanity die. I hate those bullfighting etc too. We human were meant to be civilized but we seems refuse to give up the old habits we had.

I never seen any such event.

This is not legal in most places but theres talks of other animals fighting so why not ask. 
I know it is popular with Bitcoin and gamblings.
