    I don’t have a dog in this race

    Dog racing is somewhat common.

      More common than horse fights for sure

      I would have felt a dog racing is actually more common than horse racing. Dogs are cheaper than horses, and don’t require jockeys, so that’s a cost saving right there.

      Con Idea: I could get a really big dog, and enter it as a small horse.

      I’ve heard that before, but I’m my lived experience the horse race once has been way more common. maybe it’s reversed if you live somewhere that dogfighting is more common.

    Whenever there’s a horsefight, my money is always on the horse. The guy fighting it always gets demolished.

    I’ve played enough Mount & Blade to know that if you’re in a fight and everyone else has horses you’re probably fucked.
