I am not a dog brother, i am, in my heart, a puppy cousin. I have used some of the excellent video tape material, but most of all, i have tried to imbibe the spirit of this unique pack of individuals. Inspired by their ethos, i have fought bare stick in a hockey helmet, street hockey gloves and elbow pads. I have fought with a friend, numerous times, i still have the scars, the knowledge, and the friendship, along with the few brain cells i brought to the encounters. In my understanding of the Filipino arts, this is what it is about, hard training in a tribal atmosphere, where smart impact, trust, and fellowship walk hand in hand, or paw in paw.
