Very cool New York Times article about them here (h/t to GoodDog):
They meant no harm. Clad in leather, inked to the hilt in skulls and dragons, with images of bloodied barbed wire looped about their necks, they shared something else — a peculiar tenderness for animals, and the intensity needed to act on the animals’ behalf when people abuse them.
And, also check out Rescue Ink's MySpace page loaded with some excellent photos.

I read an article about these guys in the NY Times a few years ago. They just started out as a couple of guys and a van who would go out and help animals in need. As much as I dislike reality TV, I hope this does well as it means more funding for their non-profit work.
I know nothing about these guys and thought it was just Nat Geo putting together a group to do a TV show. That's pretty cool they actually have a real history together.
Yeah I found the article: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/24/nyregion/thecity/24pet.html
Thanks, GoodDog! I'm going to post the link in the main.
I just got my cable company to give me the NatG channel by itself, without all the other @#$!!! and without subscribing for an overpriced bloated package of garbage channels, just so I can watch these guys (and DogWhisperer, and Dogtown....).
I should look into that too. It'll be like crack on TV.
