Efforts to rehabilitate Michael Vick's pit bulls

We have two pit bulls... that we somehow acquired... through no fault of ours... and we love them, they are fun and funny to have around. Although, Zeus can be annoying with his constant need for attention and his licking, I wouldn't want any ill to fall on him for whatever reason. And actually, he would be a terrible fighter so his future would not be good in the hands of people like Vick. On the other hand, Duke is a little too skittish and might make a good fighter out of fear. But otherwise, since that has never been a part of his life, he has a sweet disposition and even temper... he is almost stoic and resolved in his demeanor.
