The bestselling story of survival and our powerful bond with man’s absolute best friend, within the aftermath of the nation’s most notorious animal cruelty case. Featuring a new Afterword with updates at the Vick dogs.

Animal lovers and sports fans were shocked when the story broke about NFL player Michael Vick’s brutal dog-fighting operation. But what changed into of the fifty-one dogs who survived? As acclaimed creator Jim Gorant reveals, their story is the in reality newsworthy aspect of this case. The Lost Dogs traces the effort to bring Vick to justice and turns the spotlight on these infamous pit bulls, that have been saved from euthanasia by an outpouring of public appeals coupled with a court order that Vick pay nearly one million dollars in “restitution” to the dogs.

As an ASPCA-led team evaluated each and every one, they found a couple of hardened fighters, but most were lovable, friendly creatures desperate for compassion. In The Lost Dogs, we meet these amazing animals, many of whom now live in loving homes and work in therapy programs. The Lost Dogs exposes the terrible practice of dog fighting and shows us that even after being subjected to heartbreaking abuse, above all, a dog still wants to be man’s absolute best friend.
