Its exploiting that breed and its loyalty and need to please, couple that with its natural strength and you have a killer...
Certain Cultures....

The travellers here in Ireland.
They're different, genetically different, culturally....like a different race.
They have their bare knuckle boxing tournaments here, some of them savage.
They fight their dogs at the same time, do a lot of coursing too, things like that.

I don't agree with it or like it, but its the way they are and they would raise hell if anyone tried to take it away from them
