    Philadelphia Eagles Michael Vick wants to own a dog

    http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=5922161

    Vick says he'd like to own dog again someday

    Michael Vick, who was banned by the judge who sentenced him on dogfighting charges from ever owning another dog, says he misses being a dog owner and would like to have one as a pet someday.
    The Philadelphia Eagles quarterback, interviewed by NBC News and the website TheGrio.com, said he and his family miss having a dog. He said he wants to show people that he can be a responsible pet owner and that he would not take the opportunity for granted.
    "I would love to get another dog in the future. I think it would be a big step for me in the rehabilitation process," Vick said, according to NBC News and TheGrio.com. The full interview was scheduled to be shown on TheGrio.com on Wednesday.
    On Tuesday at a Philadelphia-area charter school, where Vick was speaking out against dogfighting, he was asked if he would return to the Eagles next season.
    "I would hope so," Vick said, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer. "A lot of things have to happen. A lot of things have to take place. ... But hopefully I'm a Philadelphia Eagle next season."
    Vick has led the Eagles to a share of the NFC East division lead and resurrected a career many thought was all but over after he went to federal prison for funding a dogfighting ring. The operation trained pit bulls to fight and killed dogs that did not perform well in training sessions.
    Vick told NBC News and TheGrio.com. that he wants to show that that part of his past is behind him.
    "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; I think it would be outstanding," Vick said in the interview. "If I ever have the opportunity again I will never take it for granted.
    "I miss having a dog right now. I wish I could. My daughters miss having one, and that's the hardest thing: Telling them that we can't have one because of my actions," Vick said in the interview.
    Um.... O-kay.....

    Crappy situation that his kids have to suffer as a result of his bad decisions.
    I wish there was a way the kids could have their dog, but have it monitored or something. . . RFD chips with regular visits to the Vet, visits FROM animal control? or something to that effect?...

    crappy situation.

    and a big bag of NO for Christmas as well. I'm sure with the money and resources they can find something else to occupy their time.

    My thoughts? Yeah.................and.....................so... ...............what? Is it going to affect anyone? No? Think he's really stupid enough to get back in the dogfighting game? I'm sure his parole/probation officer would be giving him a visit here and there, so the dog should be fine...
