Reddit reviews The Lost Dogs: Michael Vick's Dogs and Their Tale of Rescue and Redemption

I love Oogy! That book is so great. There's a book about the Vick dogs too, but be warned, you will cry for days and probably turn into a bitter asshole like me.

I havent seen that but I have read The Lost Dogs, about what happened to mike vicks pit bulls after he was arrested. Most of them, even after being forced to fight, turned out to be perfectly calm and loving animals.

If you're really interested in this, check out The Lost Dogs by Jim Gorant. It's a really great book with a lot of information about the case and the dogs. And it truly shows how incredibly resilient dogs are, regardless of breed.

I really, really, really hate that guy. What he did was so much worse than people realize. I wear the negative karma I accrue explaining his crime as a badge of honor. The good news is that [almost all the surviving dogs have been rehabilitated] (http://www.amazon.com/The-Lost-Dogs-Michael-Redemption/dp/1592405509)

Every time we play him I feel like our DL is playing for his victims.

As with all dogs, a lot of their behavior comes down to the owner. Look at the dogs who were rescued from Michael Vick. Most of them were rehabilitated and adopted by loving families who say they are excellent dogs. Some were even trained and are excelling at being therapy dogs. Those were very "damaged" animals but with love and training they have much better lives. I suggest checking out the book The Lost Dogs: Michael Vick's Dogs and Their Tale of Rescue and Redemption, it is very compelling.

I have gotten dogs from breeders and I have gotten dogs from shelters and I loved them all. However, the dogs I got from breeder tended to have more health issues and one of then had a lot of behavioral problems. The point is, just because you get a dog from a breeder doesn't mean it won't have problems.
