The Dog Brothers are a group of martial artists that have gained some notoriety in the Filipino Martial Arts community for their aggressive sparring methods employing a style they have copyrighted as "RealContact Stickfighting".
This form of fighting takes place primarily between two practitioners who mutually enter into a no-holds-barred sparring match wearing very little protective gear and fighting with single or double sticks. They have also held matches between opponents utilizing a variety of weapons including staff, bokken, whip, shock knife, aluminium practice knives, and Nunchaku
The format of the fights are such that any fighter can stop the fight at any time, for any reason. All participants sign a waiver beforehand, clearly stating they agree to be "friends at the end of the day" and "no suing for nothing". There are no trophies or prizes, only the chance to mutually learn something about your fighting abilities.
Gatherings of the pack
Dog Gatherings of the Pack are Real Contact Stick Fighting events organized and operated by the Marc "Crafty Dog" Denny, the Guiding Force of the Dog Brothers, in conjunction with the Dog Brothers at the location in question. Dog Brothers Gatherings are held in Los Angeles, CA (Crafty Dog); Bern, Switzerland (Lonely Dog), and Montreal, Canada (Sled Dog). The "Dog Brothers Tribal Gathering of the Pack" (Crafty Dog) is open only to members of the Dog Brothers Tribe and is held in an undisclosed location in the greater Los Angeles area. The are various fight days organized by the various clans of the Dog Brothers as well.
Fighters must pre-register in order to participate in the fighting. These Gatherings show good response from the Filipino Martial Arts community, and many serious fighters attend in order to test their skills in a realistic format.
In the early days of the Dog Brothers, they were approached by the UFC to be a special event, but eventually were turned down by the UFC for being "just too extreme" http://dogbrothers.com/?page_id=15
HistoryDuring its inception, the Dog Brothers group formed at the Inosanto Academy in 1986, a school in California owned and operated by Dan Inosanto. The group came into formal existence on its own in May 1988 with three consecutive days of fighting. Its founders are Marc "Crafty Dog" Denny (the Guiding Force), Eric "Top Dog" Knaus (the Fighting Force) and Arlan "Salty Dog" Sanford (the Silent Force) The group's name is a riff upon a call to battle by "Conan the Barbarian" to him men.
Joining the pack
Their motto is "The greater the dichotomy, the profounder the transformation. Higher consciousness through harder contact." (c). And this motto is indicative of both their aggressive style of play but also the underlying philosophy that a Gathering can be used as a method of self discovery. After a fighter has taken part in number of gatherings, he may eventually be invited to become part of the Dog Brothers Tribe and take a "Dog" name. The doggy name however takes several steps to receive. The first step is putting "Dog" in front of a fighter's name; for instance "Dog" John Smith. As the fighter progresses they then receive "Dog Brother candidacy status" where they pick a name with help from the pack. They are then considered "C-(insert name here) Dog John Smith." The last step is then to remove "C-" from the name and the fighter is welcomed into the tribe as a "Dog Brother."
