RICHMOND, Va. — More than 50 pit bulls seized from Michael Vick (http://javascript<b></b>:siteSearch('Michael Vick');)'s property face a Thursday deadline to be claimed. If no one comes forward, they could be euthanized.
Federal prosecutors filed court documents last month to condemn 53 pit bulls seized in April as part of the investigation into dogfighting on the Vick's property. No one has claimed any of the dogs, which are being held at several unspecified shelters in eastern Virginia (http://javascript<b></b>:siteSearch('Virginia');), the U.S. Attorney's office said Wednesday.
The civil complaint filed by federal prosecutors does not name the Atlanta Falcons (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,294211,00.html#) quarterback and is separate from the criminal case against him. But it does state the pit bulls were part of the dogfighting operation known as "Bad Newz Kennels (http://javascript<b></b>:siteSearch('Bad Newz Kennels');)," which Vick and three cohorts are accused of operating.More (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,294211,00.html)
