Interview with D. Burton

Danny, what can you tell me about Taiwan?

" One day somebody called me and I hung up the phone because I thought somebody was playing a joke on me. But he called back and said 'please don't hang up.' He asked me if I was Danny Burton and then told me it took him four years to find me. He asked me if he could come over and I thought it was still a joke so I said, 'yes, sure, come over.' Then the next thing on a Friday night he called me and said 'I'm at the airport. Can you come and pick me up.' That's how I met Johnny Lai for the first time. When he was over here he asked if I would come to Taiwan, and I did. I worked a dog over called A.P. They called him TURTLE. Now dogfights are legal in Taiwan and they bet an awful lot of money. These people are very, very dedicated and serious. They are so serious that it almost takes the fun out of it. The treadmills they make over there are huge because they have these Chinese fighting dogs they call TOSA-INU. Johnny Lai was the first man to bring Pit Bulls from the USA to Taiwan and he is also the man that wrote the rules over there. I built the first catmill over there and taught them how to work a dog on it. I stayed about 27 days. The original plan was for over 40 days, but the food was so different from here, that I left early. They fed me rice and fish every day. Rice for breakfast, rice for lunch, and rice for dinner. They really treated me like a king, but the only meat that I'd seen was a cow pulling a cart down the road and it made me hungry just to look at him. "

Do you believe the Taiwanese people are more honest than the American people?

" Oh, yes, absolutely! To these people it's just a matter of pride and principals. I'm not taking away from America, but these people are different. Over here it seems like the general dogman is more interested in money than in the dogs. They are extremely honest and big gamblers at the same time. That's why they fly these people to Las Vegas for free. The whole deal over there is very organized and you would never have to be afraid of somebody trying to put a rub on you. They have something like two or three thousand spectators, and they gamble hard. I've seen them bring in the money in suitcases, never seen anything like it! ".

Who is putting up the money?

" The people themselves, and if they run out of money, they bet their fingers. I am missing one finger on my right hand, and one of these guys walked up to me and said, 'lost bet?' ".

Do you think they have good dogs in Taiwan now?

" They have been buying a lot of dogs; and now if they buy something, they come over and take the dog back with them when they leave. It's just like with those people from England, they have been cheated by American people so bad, that now they come and take the dog back home. And I believe they are getting better dogs all the time. I couldn't take advantage of someone's trust, but some people will. The people from Taiwan and Europe wouldn't do anything like that, because to them, it's a matter of pride ".

I wonder if these rules are written online somewhere in English. Would really be interested to read them.

(By that I meant the rules that this fellow Johnny Lai wrote.)

Thanks for the great read. Was this the whole interview? If not please post the rest, because it's always great reading about these interesting conversations

Good read, the finger part gave me a chuckle even though I know it was dead serious.

Honestly though I think its pretty unfair to judge the kennel of someone in a third world country by comparing it to what you would see some folks doing in a first world country. It is pretty basic knowledge that things will be much different between the two countries right down to animal husbandry.....

If bashing some guy's kennel set-up (in what I think is a 3rd world country) makes you feel better about the dog's you feed by all means ... but pretty kennels with drains and AC wont change shitty dog's. So he invested well to be running dog's 20yrs later IMO !
