Passion for fighting dog breeds is a very specific activity. And the point here is not only the “bloodthirstiness” of dog fighting. Representatives of the so-called “fighting” breeds are distinguished by special character qualities, such as increased aggressiveness, courage, stubbornness, and self-confidence. In order to raise such a dog, the breeder must himself have a strong and unyielding character, be disciplined and punctual, because working with such dogs needs to be systematic.
The nickname is of great importance in communicating with such dogs. It should reflect the pet's character. It is advisable that the name be short and sharp, like a clap or a shot, so the dog will learn to react to it with lightning speed. And obedience and good reaction are the main qualities of a well-mannered fighter. In our selection you can find a wide variety of nicknames for fighting dogs, both boys and girls.
