Most of you probably remember the story of Michael Vick and his dog-fighting ring. You may also remember that they were pit bulls. For all the dogs that were taken from Vick's place, very few were actually euthanized, which is amazing given the environment these poor dogs lived in. Due to the size of the settlement, there was more money than usual to help these dogs and give them longer times to find new homes. There are so many happy stories for those dogs, which in and of itself is nice, but it's also another demonstration that pit bulls are not "bad dogs". If you're like me, you like happy endings, so here are a couple links to learn more about what happened to these rescued dogs.
