My Heart Is Breaking
Thursday, July 19th, 2007I tried my best to stay away from the news and keep myself from searching out the story on Michael Vick of the NFL and the allegations of running a dog fighting operation.
This morning, I received this link from a client that was passed on to her that gives the phone number to call and leave your thoughts with the NFL as to what should happen. Suspension is what is being pushed, I won’t get into what I think should happen to him outside of the NFL.
This is Maggie.
Look at that face. How can it not sicken each and every person reading this?
She is part pit bull. She found us close to 10 years ago on the streets of Trenton, NJ. She had open wounds indicative of dog fighting. There was evidence that she had recently given birth to a litter of pups. She had heartworm and was near starvation. The first vet we took her to recommended we just put her down. Fortunately, we found someone that saw what we did in her eyes and her heart.
I’ll be giving her some extra-extra love today.
I can’t really write any more because I’m just so disgusted about this whole thing.
Please, do whatever you can. This recent story is getting headlines because of who he is. He’s certainly not the only one - this abuse happens every day.
