Positive puppy news: Thanks to years of pressure from PETA, Alliance for Animals, the Animal Activist Legal Defense Project, Dane4Dogs, Direct Action Everywhere, The Simple Heart, and student activists like you, Ridglan Farms—a dog factory farm that for decades bred and sold thousands of beagles to experimenters—is one step closer to shutting down. 🎉
It’s huge progress, but here’s the catch—Ridglan Farms can still sell beagles to laboratories until that deadline, and thousands of dogs are trapped there!
Ridglan Farms has been exposed for all this and more:
- Staff have cut off dogs’ swollen eyelid glands with scissors without pain relief.
- Records show nearly 275 puppies born each year died while still there, and those who survived were sold to laboratories.
- Dogs have been confined to tiny metal cages, suffered from untreated wounds, and had swollen feet from standing on wire floors.
What You Can Do
Ridglan Farms has to end its dog-breeding operation for laboratories by July 1, 2026, but that’s wayyyyy too long for the dogs still trapped there.
Please urge Ridglan Farms to let the dogs it imprisons be adopted out to caring families rn! 🐶🐶🐶
