Rockwall Pets invites community to special screening of ‘The Champions’

(ROCKWALL, TX – Feb 17, 2016) Rockwall Pets welcomes the community to join them for a very special screening of “The Champions,” an inspirational story about the pit bulls rescued from the brutal fighting ring of former Atlanta Falcon’s star quarterback Michael Vick, and those who risked it all to save them.

The event will be at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, March 31 at AMC Firewheel 18, 100 Coneflower Drive in Garland, 75040.

This uplifting documentary takes us on a journey about much more than just dogs—about prejudice, being misunderstood, the power of resilience, and the significance of the relationship we as humans have with animals. Featuring the work of Best Friends Animal Society.

Tickets for this special event can be purchased online at https://www.tugg.com/events/92153. Seats are limited.
