“Bait dogs” are docile victims to some pit bull advocates, “urban legend” to others
From ANIMAL PEOPLE, May 2012:
Setting closely matched dogs against each other as a gambling pursuit gained popularity in the fast-growing waterfront cities of the 19th century, where bulls and wildlife for traditional baiting were relatively inaccessible.
Since the promoters in the Laguna case owned the dogs on either side of each fight, the outcomes may have been rigged to reap maximum profit from gamblers in South Korea who had no ownership stake in the dogs.
