If you want to get to nitty gritty of it, APBT enthusiasts use dogman as a term for the ones who helped make this breed what it is and preserve it as such today. Do all dogmen pit their dogs? Well, that depends on how you want to look at the term. When I speak of dogmen of the past, yes, I do speak about the pitmen. But a modern dogman will usually prove the worth of his dogs through legal sports. Some say you can't prove an APBT this way. Personally, I think that the APBT has adapted to changing times. Most dogmen will say that the APBT cannot remain true to itself this way. And maybe it can't. But it's still been the foundation for something wonderful.
