Remember Michael Vick’s Disgusting Dogfighting Ring? Well, 7 Years Later… Check this Out.

In 2007, a group of dogs were saved from organized torture in NFL player Michael Vick’s backyard. His dog fighting ring was liberated and he was put in jail for his atrocities.

They took in 22 dogs, which became known as “Vicktory Dogs.” They were saved from that horrible place… and found loving, amazing homes. They found ‘victory’ in love.

Here are their stories.
