Dogs who had been traind to fight and kill, are finding a new life. This is for those who say these dogs should have been executed. The pit bulls will be going to families and never forced to fight again.

Believe in miracles and good deeds? With Michael Vick getting a second chance, we thought we'd check in and see how his Bad Newz Kennel pitbulls are doing.
Time to read about the good news. Best Friends trainer John Garcia, who was on Larry King Tuesday night with one of the dogs, Georgia, talked about their rehab with us before going on the TV show. "They're great dogs. We're setting them up for success,'' he says.
Best Friends, the largest no kill animal sanctuary in the USA, took 22 of the pit bulls in January 2008 when other groups called for their destruction and said they could not be rehabilitated. Garcia says all but two of the pit bulls will be sent to families eventually. Halle recently was adopted and Handsome Dan just went to a foster home. Only Georgia and Lucas will stay at Best Friends for the rest of their lives -- and that's due to court orders, Garcia says, more than anything else because they were prize fighters.
