Currently, laboratories that use Beagles in their tests, or breeders that breed Beagles for the labs, are required by law to have a rehome policy in place in order to be granted a license.

 

What happens though, is that the ‘no longer of use’ dogs are always euthanised rather than rehomed. 

 

MBR Acres breed 2,000 dogs a year for laboratories for torturous testing at these establishments, including (but not restricted to)…

Labcorp                     Sequani                      Envigo

Charles River             RCVS                          And more…

WE KNOW MBR Acres in Cambridgeshire ALWAYS euthanises any dogs they deem unfit for purpose. These might be the runt of the litter, or maybe slightly unwell, or have a disability. These are all dogs that could easily be rehomed. 

Instead, these dogs are needlessly KILLED on site at MBR.

 

The same happens at Labcorp, Sequani, and all the other labs. Rather than rehome, they will KILL the dogs as it’s easier.*

They kill them and chuck them in a skip or keep them in a van waiting for medical waste collection. It’s much easier, faster, and less fuss to dispose of them this way. 

We have seen so many pictures of dead dogs in yellow bags literally THROWN AWAY into a skip at MBR and Envigo, and the same happens at the other labs and testing facilities.

 

At the labs, if an experiment isn’t life ending, we are asking for those dogs to be rehomed rather than killed.

PLEASE HELP US! 

We are asking that MBR, ENVIGO (Inotiv) & LABCORP REHOME RATHER THAN KILL THE BEAGLES NO LONGER NEEDED.

 

We need to get as many signatures as possible so this issue cannot be ignored.

We want the government to INSIST the labs and breeders enforce their rehoming policy rather than euthanising as a first resort.

 

PLEASE SIGN TO HELP US SAVE THE LIVES OF THOUSANDS OF BEAGLE PUPPIES.

 

WE WILL REHOME ANY BEAGLES THEY WILL RELEASE - We already have a rehome division in place to help with any rehome, find out more here… https://www.exposingcruelty.com/ec-forever-loved

• We are collecting signatures to present to parliament and we need as many as possible.
• This petition is presented by two groups coming together to create change. Those groups are https://www.exposingcruelty.com/ and https://www.thecampbeagle.co.uk/

* Envigo and Labcorp are known to very infrequently rehome, probably to friends and family, but this is not the norm.
