So Mike Vick wants to own a dog again. Should he be allowed to?

Micheal Vick has had a stellar season so far right out of the PEN. Helping to lead the Eagles to the playoffs, mentoring kids on the dangers of dog fighting and spending quite a bit of his free time working with the Humane Society. Micheal Vick has been the role model most kids need after his 19 month sentence for dog fighting.

Part of his agreements with the courts was to never own a dog again, However Mike expressed to TheGrio.com “I would love to get another dog again in the future. I think it would be a big step in the rehabilitation process for me,” he says “I think just to have a pet in my household and to show people that I genuinely care, and my love, and my passion for animals.”

Mike says he’s learned from his mistakes and is a “better person” now. He credits God with helping him turn his life around and hopes people will give him a second chance.

Do you think Vick has reached a point where it would be ok for him to own a dog again?

    he should be allowed to, but should be monitored for some time as well.

      He should never be allowed to own a dog or anything else. He admitted to strangling and hanging the dogs if they didn't do well in a fight. Yvette you are dumb that was not his cousin that did "everything" they were his dogs. Hes an idiot and should be behind bars. Hang his ass by his toe nails. All of his dogs except for 1 went to great homes he doesnt deserve to own a hampster. Hes only sorry he got caught. I would kill him if he came near my dog.

      Are you kidding me? His cousin who did everything? I have studied this case, read books and articles… Michael killed those dogs with his bare hands, don't kid yourself. Someone that can kill innocent lives of dogs because they will not kill deserves that end for himself. Know the facts before you defend him, how about reading lost dogs… Open your eyes to what kind of monster he was. He was making millions and loosing money on dog fighting and still didn't stop. He did it because he enjoyed it. That is just sick. If he wants to redeem himself then he should start with the animals he tortured, abused and neglected. Go earn their trust, put in the time at rescues, get out of all the PR bullshit and really start caring. The coward doesn't care about dogs, he just doesn't want to tell his little girl why they can't have a dog… because he kills them! People were so quick to say kill all 50 dogs, they will never change. Rescuers fought months upon months for them. They are still paying the price of what he did everyday some of them. Should he be able to own a dog? NEVER! And try and tell me other wise… the things he did to those dogs, the testimony from the grounds keeper and the information that came out around how he killed them, I cried my self to sleep many night only to have nightmares of him.

    I say for everyone to mind there business. Its not like it was your dog or you knew the man personally. There are no perfect people in this world and Vick has the same rights as all of us. Even drug abusers and deadbeat parents get their children back. This man has paid his dues and he still one of the highest paid nfl players in the league. Every dog has it day (no pun intended) lol! Leave the man alone and let him live.

    yep we should forgive because when people kill new born babies by seting them in a tub with a couple blow dryers …shit just hapens right? murderers can change thats why when they plead guilty we just let them go run a muck in our naiborhoods. NOT!!!!!. just because mike vick has money he can get away with torture and murder of inocent animals that are equal to new borns they cant speak for themselfs and dont understand right or wrong they just do what makes thier owner happy and if you can watch a child (dog) be hung, electricuted, and bashed against the paivment for no reason. then you must be the first person ever to forgive a man for tourturing a baby! SICK. from now on when people kill inocent children we should just give them a couple years in jail and when they have done their time they can be forgiven and live in society 🙂

      " inocent animals that are equal to new borns " I love animals too, but this type of thinking is a bit irrational. It's also irrational to continue to hold the dog fighting incident against Vick for the rest of his life.

        nope.. it is really quite rational actually. He didn't just neglect the dogs. I DARE you, google the court statements, read what he did to these dogs. Then tell me it was ok. He banged one of their heads, YOUNG dogs, against the concrete while they were alive… until he broke their skulls and killed them. He hung them in front of other dogs, but with their feet just barely against the ground, so it would be slow and all the other dogs could hear that and smell the fear and death, he covered one in water and then electrocuted it. He himself killed these dogs brutal with his bare hands. Not just his cousins.

    He should NOT be allowed to own a dog!! Looks like he already clipped his dog's ears, which is unnecessary….asshole.
    Jeremy, I agree with you 100%. Protect your kids and dogs!

    Might I also say that Vick spent time in jail for running a dog fighting ring. Not a single animal cruelty charge. He should have been charged with 58 cases of animal abuse at least. 18 months in jail… what a joke!

    He needs to have the exact same thing done to him as he did to the dogs so he can feel the horrible pain they went through for him and his greedy cousins to make money at the expense of their suffering! He is a piece of worthless crap that should still be in jail.

    Vick isnt sorry for what he did to the animals, he is just sorry he got caught! There is a big difference. How would Vick like to be hung in front of other humans with his feet barely against the ground? This is how he treated the dogs. I feel NO sympathy for him.
