Dogtown - The Michael Vick Dogs

To any of you who may have contributed to Best Friends Animal Society last year in honor of our memorial hike, and who may be wondering what Best Friends actually does with that money, here's a great opportunity to find out.  Earlier this year, Best Friends was awarded custody of 22 of the Michael Vick dogs (more than any other rescue organization in the country), and the staff is currently in the process of rehabilitating these dogs at the sanctuary in Utah.

National Geographic Channel is running a new episode of Dogtown (which is a series about the work being done at Best Friends) on Friday, September 5th at 9 pm which deals exclusively with the Michael Vick dogs and the work that is being done with them to make them whole again. Best Friends was one of the only organizations that fought to keep these animals from being destroyed, and they have built a special compound at the sanctuary just for these special dogs. It's a fabulous story - I hope you'll watch!
