See them Now!

The only difference between BAD RAP's 'Vick dogs' and the rest of the dogs in their foster care program is their celebrity. All are now living in volunteer foster homes with other pets and some, with children. Like other BAD RAP dogs, they're receiving basic obedience training and learning house manners. All are neutered and micro-chipped. All have different personalities. We can expect they will be well-mannered, good canine citizens that will blend right in with society. After escaping two certain deaths, they're now destined to be well loved family pets and they'll continue to help break down the stereotypes the breed has suffered.

Up until recently, most of the dogs have been deprived of experiencing things that other dogs take for granted. While their bodies heal from neglect and stress, they're being exposed to everything the world has to offer to ensure that they respond appropriately. They're also provided with stable homes with lots of structure, guidance and training. Dogs feel much more secure when they have a routine and, especially, a leader that they can look to for direction. Helping these dogs is a simple as giving them what they never had before and what every dog deserves.
