They have alot of health problems, but are very, very good pets, and not fighters by nature, despite the history of being in the ring with bulls. Once they bite down on something, their jaws won't release, unless pryed with a crowbar. They have a very high tolerance for pain
So, they bred 'em with Black and Tan terriers(some Irish drunkard must've thought up the scheme-and I'm Irish, just so ya' know before you label me) for agility and speed
Some of the Vick supporters seem to keep glossing over the fact that Vick didn't just have dogfights, he and his crew strangled, drowned and electrocuted them, also.
Vick should get at least a year or two in state prison with other murderers, he'll probably fit in well

Don't take it personally.
They will allow a quiltingbee...but that's about it.
