An Ottawa family has adopted two beagles that were among thousands freed from a facility in Virginia that was breeding them so they could be sold for drug experiments.

Animal rescue agencies in the U.S. have been looking for homes for the dogs, who the U.S. Humane Society said lived—and in some cases died—inSpeaking on Newstalk 580 CFRA’s “Ottawa Now with Kristy Cameron”, Michael Frame said he learned about the plight of the dogs from a news report.

Frame said he wasn’t sure if any of the American agencies would allow a Canadian to adopt one of the dogs or if the Canada Border Services Agency would allow it into the country. He spoke to several rescue agencies before finding one that would adopt to a Canadian family.“We hopped in the car Tuesday morning and drove down to Salem, Massachusetts,” he said.

“They did tell us that they’re going to have dogs up to seven years old from that facility, and there’s a lot of them,” he said. “Though, we did have to agree that we might have one with some medical issues, which we were okay with, just to get them out of where they were.”“I have three teenage boys. Any time one of them comes home, or my wife comes home, or myself, they’re all excited and come running. It warms your heart to see them come running down the hall,” he said.

Insane!

Getting awfully frigging sick of this stupid story. Look after our humans here including babies that you don’t give a shit about.

Please reach out and ask for comment from the HumaneSociety as to when some will be up for adoption in Canada? I am not driving to Massachusetts or New York. The local family that did are saints. Thanks.

🙏🏻❤️

I guess since drugs are being tested on humans now, these beagles are no longer valuable to research facilities.

That’s nice and all. But what about the animals in our local shelters?
