LABORATORY BEAGLES FREED FOR THE FIRST TIME

I am still crying after watching this video. The magnitude of what is done for human "safety" by monsters is beyond belief ... and these were among the lucky ones.

 Smelling fresh air for the first time.....

“With this latest rescue coinciding with Thanksgiving,” Smith said. “To be able to give these dogs a chance at life after living a life so horrendous none of us can imagine, its perfect timing to think gratitude.”
Millions of dogs each year are used as test subjects in order to study the effects of harmful pharmaceuticals, toxic household cleaners, and chemical-laden cosmetic products. A group known as Animal Rescue Media Education is dedicated to not only attempt to rescue science-lab dogs, but they also try and find them a home.


In one of their largest rescue missions, the organization successfully rescued 72 beagles. With 32 already adopted by the time the press started picking up the story, the remaining 30 dogs were being nursed back to health.

In this touching video, watch as 9 rescued beagles are released from their cages for the first time. This is not only the first time they’ve seen sunlight, but the first time the animals are walking on solid ground.


They can barely walk as it is due to lack of exercise... 

 Apprehension... real ground, no bars, space.... Despite warmth and encouragement,
it took him about 15 minutes to venture from the safety of his cage..

“We’ve been told they lived one per cage in rooms of 10 beagles, but they never had any physical interaction with one another,” Smith said. “They’ve been in kennels since they were rescued about a week ago, but aside from that, they’ve spent most of their lives locked up.”

It is very easy to disregard animal testing as a real issue just as it is very simple to ignore international slave labor ~ it oftentimes simply does not affect you until you see it first hand. When you read product labels stating that the item was not tested on animals, it may mean very little to you.

Videos like these provide a wake-up call to the very cruel reality of animal testing and other forms of animal abuse. 


It is important to consider how many other important issues are also disregarded due to the lack of immediate effect ~ particularly when it comes to your health.

I.E. Perhaps the high-fructose corn syrup in your diet may not immediately harm you, but it may lead to disease later down the road.

If you are interested in adopting one of the dogs or supporting the organization responsible for rescuing the beagles, you can view their adoption page.

  2. OH YES indeed they do! Who are humans to deny the soul? Heck there are many who deny that we have souls too!

    When once asked what animal I would choose as a totem, I did not go for the fancy big predators... wolves, eagles, bears, etc...

    I chose the dog because I related best to its ideals as part of our lives.

    Honesty, love, loyalty, protectiveness, trust, all traits that every human being should cultivate to the highest levels.

    Whenever I have been called a bitch, my usual response is either "You say that as if it is a bad thing" or, simply, "thank you very much". No sarcasm intended ever.
