Georgia, until we meet again

12.2.13_Georgia-VicktoryDog-7I am so very sad to have to pass along this news. Georgia, one of the dogs from the Michael Vick dogfighting case, has passed over the Rainbow Bridge. Her age was taking its toll, and her kidneys could just no longer keep up.
“All of the Vicktory dogs captured our hearts, but maybe none more than Georgia. From her time on the National Geographic show ‘DogTown,’ she was an instant star. That wonderful smile and loving personality won everyone over – whether she met someone in real life or through a television screen.”
When the dogs were first rescued, the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) and People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) recommended they be euthanized because their brutal past had made them unsuitable for adoption. A PETA spokeswoman told the Associated Press, “These dogs are a ticking time bomb. Rehabilitating fighting dogs is not in the cards.”
But BFAS, Bad Rap and other rescue organizations – along with Georgia and the Vicktory dogs – certainly proved them wrong.” I love dogs
