Vicks Pitt Bulls are doing well

So glad the dogs got good handlers now . Funny I used to live in Kanab while hubby put a high libne in thru there.

I do not know much about dogs at all. But I would imagine that the way a dog behaves would have to do with his training. Even the cutest daintiest dogs seem to be capable of turning, given the right circumstances. I am glad that the surviving dogs are doing fine. It was certainly horrible what he did to them.

have to go in and look copy and paste aint getting it

I watch a TV show showing this sanctuary and all these dogs. I feel that they deserve some happiness in their sad lives. I actually had tears running down my face when I saw the dogs whose teeth had been removed or filed down. I honestly do not think that any of these dogs should be adopted into families as there could always be a very real chance that something could trigger them to resort back to their savage instincts. However I do think that they should be allowed to live their lives out in a sanctuary or some other type of controlled environment.

i am so glad to hear that!! i was wondering if they ever did ok or what.. its glad to know that they can be normal now and not had to have been destroyed

Animal Planet recently did a special on these dogs as a follow up story. I was happy to see that many of these dogs are now enjoying loving homes. Others are still in recovery or in safe shelters trying to be trained to accept people and other dogs. What bothers me is many cities don't even bother trying to help these dogs. I know the ASPCA in Detroit automatically euthanizes pitbulls that are suspected of dog fighting. They don't even allow them a chance. There are other cities that do this as well. Another thing that bothers me is Vick's so called apology. We all know the only reason he apologized is to try and look better for the courts and the NFL. We also know that he didn't really feel a bit sorry for what he chose to do to those dogs. So a story like this, that takes abused pets and rehabilitates them to place them in loving homes makes me feel happy and also proud of the workers that go the extra mile helping these dogs.

I heard bits and pieces about this story. I am glad that some of the dogs turned out to be okay and got new homes. I think people do make the dogs vicious most of the time.

It is so nice to hear that the dogs are doing well. I still cannot believe that people can treat animals so cruely. As for some thinking that pitbulls are terrible dogs, I do not believe this is true. I think a dog develops because of the way it was trained and the events that have happened to it through it's life. I do not think that any breed of dog is born to be evil. It is wonderful to hear that some of the dogs are working with children. It is nice to see that something good has come out of a terrible situation.
