Hilarious! (I can't think of better justice for that degenerate.)
Hey, Im all for making fun of Michael Vick. I hope he gets his due for any possible cruel things he's done to animals, dogs, or any others that he's condoned in his lifetime. Also, I understand the pic, the humor involved in it and so on. However, as a proud owner of two pits (I feel like I have to defend them atleast once a wk to anyone who sees them) I don't really appreciate pictures that depict the breed in that manner.
Kind of a double edged sword, and if their is any ignorant, uninformed posters on this board (which I know their are) you're just giving them ammo to bash. The picture really should be taken down. Just my opinion.
The dog looks like a yellow lab, look at the tail, too much hair or more hair than a pit would have... I would never do more damage to a pitbull reputation than it already has, maybe you haven't been on here long enough... I've been slamming Vick from the beginning, when all the rumblings starting to surface, and have now been writting letters, making phone calls, and when someone sent this to me, I took it as it was, and thought it was funny... You should too.. You want him to be punished for what he did, that is the significance of the picture, the dog is going to lay down the law...

It's just a bad representation of the breed, regardless of what Vick did.
Since this can of worms has been opened, I'd like to ask a question about pitbulls: They got their name for their reputation as fighting dogs, right? I love all animals, dogs especially, but pitbulls have always creeped me out a little, probably because they have a slight "reptilian" look to them. They seem to be popular with inner-city folk because of their tough reputation. Are they aggressive dogs by nature? Just curious.
Vick's pitbulls aren't the bad representation, but the fact that Michael Vick fighting the dogs is harming the breed, is creating a bad representation... not the other way around...
People need to remember, he outright KILLED the pitbulls who failed to fight or who weren't winners...Not all Pitbulls like to fight,(it becomes a fight or flight situation for them) and they aren't born that way, it is something they are taught... Which is why they are in pits, to take the "flight" instinct away and FORCE them to fight for survival... Dogfighting is a brutal, blood sport and it was not created by the dogs, but people, humans, made them this way...
MICHAEL VICK IS CREATED A BAD REPRESENTATION ON THE DOGS, NOT THE DOGS CREATING A BAD REPRESENATION ON THEIR BREED... THEY HAD NO CHOICE.
Just recently in L.A.

and just this week 3 ran wild in the streets out here and attacked several people. A cop had to kill one of them with a shot gun.
