Cherry, A Rescued Michael Vick Pit Bull, Gets His Best Day (EVER!)

[Omaha Steve]

A Pit Bull, named Cherry, that was rescued from Michael Vick’s property, gets the best day ever thanks to BarkBox and many loving people. When Cherry was initially rescued, it was obvious that he NEVER belonged where he was. His calm spirit and loving nature came through in spades! So rescuers knew that Cherry would do well in a loving home.

After intensive testing to ensure that Cherry was not a risk to anyone, he was placed in a home with a family that adores him. What Cherry represents, what he has been through, and the unwavering love he shares, proves that not only can a dog like Cherry conquer the stereotype, he can also give back so much more than he has ever had to take. His ability to trust and forgive humans is a lesson in itself. Aren’t dogs amazing?

Watch as Cherry gets his best day ever… filled with kittens, dog-friendly ice cream sundaes and LOTS and LOTS of love.

1. Love to Cherry....

It's so incomprehensible that humans can be so cruel. Dogs are the best.

2. I can't even imagine how people can do things like this to dogs

Michael Vick is a thug and scumbag who should be in prison to this day, not making millions of dollars a year playing football. Screw the NFL for letting him back in. Vick and his associates didn't just make the dogs fight. they would drown, hang, and execute the dogs that didn't perform well (i.e. the dogs that didn't want to fight). Sheer brutality and cruelty. Screw him.

8. Blessed are the rescuers.

Though I have my doubts. I read right here on DU that pitbulls are evil, the antiChrist, have jaws that rival the Great White and should be nuked off the planet. So it has to be true. LOL

Oh, and fuck Micheal Vick. Still.

Love this vid, thanks Steve.

9. I've become a bit obsessed with pitbull Facebook pages...

and Cherry's one I check in on every couple of days. He and his new sister Ellie are adorable together. Thanks to everyone involved in saving these dogs.

And to echo the sentiment above: FUCK MICHAEL VICK!

10. Thank god at least these wonderful animals were rescued.

It's time the human race found a way to give up terrorizing, tormenting other living beings.

May Cherry find deep security and kindness every remaining day.
