(50,603 posts)Of the 22 dogs Michael Vick had, only two of them were ordered to remain in a sanctuary for life. One of the two has since died (natural causes) and this is the other one.
The other 20 dogs were all placed in homes. Most of them are still alive.

(50,603 posts)There are several websites devoted to Vick's dogs. The whereabouts of all 22 dogs are known, and all the dogs who have died are noted. Most of his dogs are alive and well.

Actually, that is too good for them. Karma would be for him to have the same treatment that he gave the dogs and see how he likes fearing for his life 24/7.

(51,675 posts)I thought it was a different dog and had to rewatch. My Chihuahua had a dark muzzle as a puppy and now he whole face and muzzle are white, she's 16 years young.
