    A sad story with a sad outcome. My one question is why are the dogs being destroyed? I understand they may be dangerous to humans and each other, but surely there’s something better to be done with them. Instead of a life of fighting, they’re killed? It seems like a poor solution.

    There truly is not a good option. The dogs were put up for adoption but no one wanted them. Even PETA supported the plan to have them destroyed in this circumstance. They are the latest victims of Vick and his horrible “sport.”
