Passionate when it comes to my canine companions as well as dogs everywhere, it's my mission to raise awareness of any issues that affect them, from their health, food and nutrition and training to their welfare. Canine advocacy is something that everyone who cares about dogs needs to be aware of and we all need to share that and raise our voice for those who cannot speak for themselves.

Michael Vick – The Newest HSUS Spokesperson?

Michael Vick Yes, it’s true, this POS is outta prison and on home release. Wow, those poor tortured, abused and killed dogs really got justice, didn’t they? NOT! He did no time for animal abuse! This piece of crap did a measly 23 months for the gambling, not animal abuse. There was no justice for the dogs he killed! And now it looks like he is pandering his notoriety to Wayne Pacelle of the HSUS to garner some sympathy, play some mind games and wheedle his way back into the NFL.

If anyone believes he has paid for his crimes you are sorely mistaken! If you believe he s truly remorseful, I also believe you are sorely mistaken. For him, this is just a way to pander to the public so he can get back in the game and back to the bucks.

He contacted Wayne Pacelle who actually visited him in prison and had a little conversation about his reformation, yeah right! Well, Pacelle says he’s not totally convinced but seems to be willing to give him a chance. Not me! This POS deserves to burn in hell, not enjoy the NFL playing field. As I said before and continue to believe wholeheartedly, the only thing Vick is remorseful about is getting caught and convicted, not the pain and suffering he caused.  It’s not like he needed the money, he enjoyed the sick thrill of this vicious blood sport.

If he’s accepted back into the NFL and if he becomes a spokesperson for the HSUS, all this is doing is sending a message that you can get away with murder, literally, if you play the right mind games and have a big name.

The HSUS has disappointed me in the past and if they take this waste of human life on, they will do so again but I won’t be all too surprised.  Big name, big money… it all comes down to the cold, hard cash.  Shame on them!

Personally I’d like to see Vick fade into obscurity and a few years from now hear one of those, “where are they now?” kind of things, seeing him doing menial labor or back in prison, now that will send a message.  Him being back in the game only sends the wrong message!

I’m going to stop now before this deteriorates into more  of a rant than it already is.  I’m quite sure my friends, commentators and readers will be more than happy to pick up where I left off!

If you’re actually still interested, you can catch up on all the Michael Vick background and BS HERE.

  • Thank you so much for your strong stance against this. This news has had me torn up and livid. Yes, the justice for these poor animals HAS NOT been served.

    I support the help and rescue of all animals.

    Please keep up your fight. Maybe the HSUS will back down. If not, we can look for his arrogant ways to begin again as he heads back to the NFL.

  • Franc - canada

    to have this piece of waste even speak on behalf of any animal would be cruelty in intself and not something that he should even be given a chance to do

  • Barbara Trimble

    Everytime I hear that POS name I get physically sick. Now that HSUS has welcomed the scum into their family I truly have absolutely no use for them. I will never give them a dime and will be quick to “educate” anyone saying they are supporters of Pacelle and/or HSUS. What a waste of oxygen Vick is; he has never shown any remorse for anything other than getting caught. And if the NFL allows him to play again, well they are no better than he is. Why would they want to put this shithead into a position of becoming a role model again??? What is that teaching our kids? It is teaching them that with a big enough name and enough money you can write your own laws and get away with murder. He has absolutely no respect for life and neither does HSUS (remember all those baby pit bulls HSUS condemned to death??). This whole mess just makes me sick!!! I am so angry about it all so I had better stop now before I make this post “unpostable”!!!! Piss on Vick and HSUS!!!!!!!

  • Susie

    Barbara, I thank you for what you posted. I had to think about this for a while, and did not post anything yet, because I did not want to get into my mean mode.

    I have a letter started to Pacelle, and grant it, it will not be a pleasant letter by any means. HSUS will probably loose many supporters if they use this scum as a spokesperson.

    Animal Advocates, Please take a stand against this POS Vick being allowed to speak (lie) for any animal issue. He is unworthy, unremorseful (except for losing his comfy animal cruelty lifestyle) – Tell Wayne P. and any other AR organization who thinks Vick would be a good spokesperson for animal issues that we won’t stand for it. The dogs didn’t receive a chance – except to stand and fight for their lives for Vick and his scum bag cronie’s amusement. Hanging dogs to death, drowning — Sorry, there will be no forgiveness from me, and if I am accused of being bitter , I accept that label. I remain bitter for the dogs and will not support any group who uses Vick for promotion or advertismt. or to offer a reprieve from his unforgivable crimes inflicted upon helpless dogs. Bitter and Mad – yes I am.

  • I was so outraged when I received the email from HSUS, with Wayne giving all of his excuses for why he was going to do this. It makes me sick to my stomach. Not only that, Vick is negotiating a deal for $600,000 to do a documentary!!!! The NFL could reinstate him as early as September. Never ONCE has this sick subhuman said he was sorry for what he did to those dogs. Not ONCE. Sorry he got caught, but not sorry that he tortured them, starved them, fought them and murdered them. I simply cannot believe that the HSUS would even consider talking to him, let alone allowing him to work with them. It’s just this monster’s way of weaseling himself back into being a millionaire. He should be made to work at a shelter, cleaning out the cages for the rest of his life.

    • Admin

      I wouldn’t trust this piece of trash within breathing distance of a dog! He could clean out the cages as long as the dogs were a safe distance and under someone’s careful supervision.

      And you’re exactly right, he is only sorry that he got caught. Everything now is just an attempt to get closer to the money pot again.

  • First he was a spokesperson for Peta now this. It’s all publicity for big bucks throw this garbbage back in the gutter. I am not with Peta or HSUS now. What of justice for the dogs!!!

  • Joan

    Thank you for your comments on this POS. Vick will play football again because his is special and his con game will work with the HSUS. Vick will also finance his new dog fighting ring when he is less controversial and it is safe for him to show his true colors. Once a dog fighter, always a dog fighter.

  • Nancy

    Vick’s really sorry – sorry that he got caught, that is. I think Wayne Pacelle will do anything for publicity

  • Terry

    This jerk is so disgusting , he cares nothing about animals , he never said it was wrong , only I’m sorry .Like the world will not go on without him .He has it in his ” gangsta Blood ” , he enjoys the ripping up and torture .He and his Homies , I will not say what I call them , have been doing this for many years .Besides throwing a football , he is a useless human . He is only worried about playing football for $ and power .What team would want this idiot .Barry Bonds will not see a baseball field for Steroids , he hurt no one or anything .If anyone signs Dick , I mean Vick , it will be a public relations nightmare . I know any hockey player would never see a rink again , but football has seen a few fellons lately .NFL do the right thing , tell hin to F— O–

  • Jessie

    Yep. The perfect message to send to the kids out there. Do the crime and walk free, to do it again. Some payment for all those suffering and murdered dogs. Oh! And this will really help our plight to try and show the world how wonderful, beautiful, kind and loving Pitty’s are. This is one SOB that needs to be wiped off the face of the earth.

  • Claudia

    Every time I hear that name I have visions of those abused and murdered dogs. If HSUS is using him as a spokes person I will never ever donate a dime and banish HSUS from my e-mail account.
    Just writing this gets my blood pressure up, Vick is a killer and justice was not served for those dogs. How can they use him as a voice?
