PERMISSION TO CROSS POST
FAR AND WIDE--THIS PARAGRAPH
I had been passing out a magazine put out by American Anti-Vivisection Society
called "Paws for Thought--the Use of Dogs in Research." I never even saw that
on P. 13 there is data that shows that in 2001 76,578 dogs were used in
research. 33,830 of those dogs were used in experiments where pain and distress
was involved. They got pain relief. But 1,675 dogs were used in experiments
where pain and distress was involved AND THEY GOT NO PAIN RELIEF AT ALL!! If
you think you are too busy to get involved in changing this, ask yourself if
your own dog were accidentally sold to research which has happened before, would
you be ok that no pain meds were used? How barbaric--dogs were with us at the
World Trade Center, there is a reason they are called Man's Best Friend! Get
these statistics posted far and wide--support the work of the American
Anti-vivisection Society and the Physician's Committee for Responsible Medicine
(has a membership of 5,000 doctors) as well as Last Chance for Animals (working
on B dealers) please!! As long as pound seizure is allowed, all our pets are at
risk--stopping pound seizure has many other positive benefits to a community
including a possible 56% reduction in dog bites!! Check out the Canadian study
