There were rumors last week about Michael Vick owning a dog after he posted a pic on Twitter with a dog treat box on his table, then deleting the pic quickly after he realized the box was in the picture.  Well, today Vick has finally said squarely … his family does indeed have a dog.

We took a poll when we posted those pictures of Vick from Twitter and most of you don’t care if he owns a dog.  91% said it’s not a big deal if he does.  Check out what he had to say & let us know what you think.

There’s been a lot of controversy over whether Vick — who served hard time for brutally killing multiple dogs, should own one again.

Vick says, “I understand the strong emotions by some people about our family’s decision to care for a pet.  As a father, it is important to make sure my children develop a healthy relationship with animals.”
Vick goes on, “I want to ensure that my children establish a loving bond and treat all of God’s creatures with kindness and respect.  Our pet is well cared for and loved as a member of our family.”

Vick continues, “This is an opportunity to break the cycle.  To that end, I will continue to honor my commitment to animal welfare and be an instrument of positive change.”
