Save the lives of animals with Beagle Freedom Project

 

Imagine having never seen sunshine, never been loved, living your whole life in a tiny cage. That is what life is like for some beagles used for medical and product testing. Instead of being loved for their affable, loyal and sweet nature, beagles are exploited for that-- thus causing them to trust the people who mistreat, or even kill them through testing products and drugs. These tests are meant to confirm that the drugs will be safe for humans-- but testing drugs on beagles is completely unnecessary. A shocking 106,000 people die from drugs tested safe on animals. Testing is extremely painful for animals, no matter what is being tested, and, in most product testing, the beagles are blinded. Beagles are given insufficient food, no room to move, not even a blanket to sit on.
Sadly every year over 20,000 cats are used and killed in laboratories. Cats are often subjected to neurological studies that involve placing painful electrodes into the brains. They also often endure intubation experiments that require hard plastic tubes to be repeatedly and painfully forced down their throats.

 

A new, happy life for a cat

The Beagle Freedom Project helps to end this cruelty for all lab animals. They free animals and give them homes where they are loved, and are given a chance to become real animals. They have rescued and freed hundreds of animals, all of which were adopted. Click the following link to read heart-warming stories of the Beagle Freedom Project's rescues: http://www.beaglefreedomproject.org/rescues. Just on May 6th, 2014, nine beagles' lives were transformed when they were released, seeing the sunshine, feeling the cool soft grass on their paws, and being able to run and interact with other dogs for the first time. Here is a link to the video of the beagles being freed :http://www.beaglefreedomproject.org/http://www.beaglefreedomproject.org/. 

   You can save the lives of animals used for lab testing by donating to the Beagle Freedom Project, and by not buying products tested on animals. You don't need to sacrifice an innocent beagle's life just for your shampoo. Click on the following link to see a list of brands that test on animals: http://www.beaglefreedomproject.org/cruelty_freehttp://www.beaglefreedomproject.org/cruelty_free. Commonly used brands of products test on animals, but alternative, cruelty-free products can be found. Download the Cruelty Cutter app on your phone, and scan an item before you buy it to make sure it is cruelty-free. Here is a link: http://www.beaglefreedomproject.org/cruelty_free. You can also sign the Beagle Freedom Project's petition here: http://www.beaglefreedomproject.org/we_owe_them. If you feel uncomfortable giving your phone number or address, you can simply leave the phone number spaces blank, and give only your state and city for address, instead of house location. This petition gets sent to every lab that uses dogs and cats for testing. Another excellent way to prevent animal cruelty is to spread the word about this project. Post links on heavily populated social networks, and tell your friends about it. Are you considering starting a summer business? You can make it a fundraiser for Beagle Freedom Project, and save animals' lives.

When you adopt a pet, please search for one that was released from a lab by the Beagle Freedom Project.
