This press release is from the American Humane Association:
“Many of you have contacted us about convicted dogfighter Michael Vick’s recent reinstatement to the National Football League and his new contract with the Philadelphia Eagles.
Through your letters, calls and emails, it is apparent that many of you may be confusing us with a separate organization regarding a relationship with Michael Vick.
It is The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) that is working with Michael Vick on an anti-dogfighting campaign, not the American Humane Association.
We are different organizations with different approaches to the issue of dogfighting. American Humane is in no way affiliated or aligned with Michael Vick.
We are absolutely outraged and heartbroken by Michael Vick’s actions, and have publicly said so. For more than 13 decades American Humane has fought long and hard against any type of animal or child abuse.
We don’t know if he can change or not. Nobody does. But given that we have no control over the NFL, the Philadelphia Eagles or Michael Vick himself, we sincerely hope that he will show remorse for the incredible atrocities he committed and we adamantly call for him to make good on his stated intention of becoming a visible and strong influence against dogfighting and animal cruelty.”
