Divine intervention

the article said some would go to homes while others were to go to law enfocement. i'm assuming that the ones that are really DA are going for LE. and the article never said anything about them passing dog aggression tests nor did i. in fact there was a complete lack of anything mentioned of the sort, so i'm going to go out on a limb and assume these people know they are DA, since they aren't stupid and the dogs were from the most highly publicized dog fighting case ever, they aren't going to let them go to homes with other pets. but, like i said, we'll see what happens.

 

and why do so many people automatically act pessimistic about certain things? it's time for people to go outside and feel the sunshine once in a while. acting negatively towards what in all regards should be considered a positive story only aides our enemies.

 

Nobody said you or anyone for that matter said that they tested DA....we just know that they do from previous arrests and placements.....

 

Where is the article that you read that from Frenchie?? I would like to read it myself

 

I second that.....link would be great.....thanks!

Ok thanks!

Most of Vick's dogs will go to families and a 'sanctuary'
(CNN) -- All but one of the dogs seized in the Michael Vick dog fighting case will be placed with families or put in a "sanctuary," where they will interact with people to overcome their fear and lack of socialization, according to court order filed Monday.

Michael Vick pleaded guilty in August to conspiracy charges related to dog fighting.
One of the 49 seized dogs "has a history biting humans" and will be euthanized, according to a motion filed in Virginia in U.S. District Court.
U.S. Attorney Chuck Rosenberg said the dog -- identified as number 2621 -- "exhibited intense aggression to humans to the point where the evaluation could not safely be completed."
The recommendation came more than a month after the court ordered the dogs evaluated by U.S. Department of Agriculture contractors.
Last month a team of animal behavior experts selected by the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals analyzed the dogs, and then recommended whether they were best suited with families, trained as police dogs, placed in a sanctuary or euthanized.
Federal authorities anticipate recommending a guardian be appointed to oversee the placement of the other dogs.
Vick pleaded guilty in August to federal conspiracy charges related to dog fighting on his property in Surry County, Virginia. He is to be sentenced on the federal charges on December 10.
Last month, a federal judge tightened restrictions on Vick after he tested positive for marijuana use. The suspended Atlanta Falcons player must submit to any method of drug testing required by the pretrial services officer or the supervising officer.
He must participate in substance abuse therapy and mental health counseling if the pretrial services officer or supervising officer orders that.

Vick was also ordered to stay home between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. He is to be electronically monitored during that time.
Vick also faces state charges related to dog fighting. He will be arraigned on state charges on October 3 in a Virginia court

maybe that electronical device will short out and zap him

 

ROTFLMAO....some of us can only wish....hope and pray!

 

i figured you'd get a kick out of that...LOL.....

 

hmm... the one i read said some would be used for law enforcement. oh well, same point i guess. and actually the fact they are going to a sanctuary shows their potential for rehabilitation.

 

i hope someone finds an appropriate way to deal with him, like shanking him in the shower in prison. or worse........ i see it going something like this "no Tiny, please not there!!!"
