1. The sweetheart is so happy to be rescued. Has VICK repented?

He probably did, but this kind of abuse is unrepentable.


*******Dear Catbyte, your posts tear my heart out, thanks.

3. This is kind of a BS story

Of the 22 dogs Michael Vick had, only two of them were ordered to remain in a sanctuary for life. One of the two has since died (natural causes) and this is the other one.

The other 20 dogs were all placed in homes. Most of them are still alive.

5. Are you saying Vic did not torture and kill the dogs?

He did. There were survivors who could be rehabilitated amazingly. Dogs are such wonderful creatures because so often despite the worst trauma they manage to love again and to be capable of joy.

8. I'm saying there are a lot of Vick's dogs still alive

There are several websites devoted to Vick's dogs. The whereabouts of all 22 dogs are known, and all the dogs who have died are noted. Most of his dogs are alive and well.

7. This dog isn't in a sanctuary. She was adopted by her foster.

And these dogs were seized in 2007, 12 years ago. Pit bulls don't live much past 15.

4. Look how she changed 100% from sad dog to happy dog.

All dogs are happy dogs until a mean, cruel person treats them poorly. It is the people who should be put in cages and locked up and the key tossed into a river. Actually, that is too good for them. Karma would be for him to have the same treatment that he gave the dogs and see how he likes fearing for his life 24/7.

9. It is sad that dogs have such short lifespans. She is so gray at the end of the video. nt

I thought it was a different dog and had to rewatch. My Chihuahua had a dark muzzle as a puppy and now he whole face and muzzle are white, she's 16 years young.
