Eagles quarterback Michael Vick, who spent time in prison for his involvement in dog fighting, said Tuesday having a dog as a pet would help in his rehabilitation.

 

In an interview with NBC News and TheGrio.com, Vick said, "I would love to get another dog in the future. I think it would be a big step for me in the rehabilitation process.

 

"I think just to have a pet in my household and to show people that I genuinely care, and my love and my passion for animals; I think it would be outstanding. If I ever have the opportunity again I will never take it for granted. I miss having a dog right now. I wish I could. My daughters miss having one, and thatâ??s the hardest thing: telling them that we canâ??t have one because of my actions."

 

Vick has starred for the Eagles this season, with the team in first place heading into Sunday's NFC East showdown against the Giants at the Meadowlands.

 

"This entire situation has changed my life dramatically. Better player, better person," Vick said in the interview. "More patience, more persistence, and the willingness to, like I said earlier, set high goals and high standards not only on the football field but in life.

 

"And in so many ways I thank God for changing my life and keeping me healthy and putting me on the path to where I can redeem myself and make a great comeback."

 

Do you think he should get another chance at having a dog or any companion pet for that matter?

are you serious? he involved himself in dog fighting? clearly a dumbass. if he got his dog killed. personally i think he does deserve a chance but only for the sake of his kids, but i wouldn't really trust him

I don't see what the problem is. People make such a big deal out of stupid shit. If he gets a dog so what? Unless he hurts it there is no problem.

i think this was a great experience for him to be involved in this situation. if nothing had happened about it, it would have just continued if not escalated to a new level. now that he has served his time, and was granted the secondchance, i do think he has improved as a person (atleast the way the media has perceived him to the general public). so far he has shown he can not only play, but live and cope with life in a positive manner, and that says a lot.

I'm sure he knows that he's under the microscope and doing those sort of things again would permanently ruin his career.

the only reason his charges seemed so severe is because he was an NFL player. dog fighting really is nothing more than an animal cruelty offence. yea its terrible but not as terrible as people hyped it up to be
