Volunteers are the pulse of every organizational body—they give their time freely and compassionately, a priceless gift.
We are grateful for every volunteer who showed up to our barn to ensure a smooth transition for over 1300 beagles bred for sale in research or bred for research. They smiled, they cried, they laughed, they compromised, and they worked tirelessly.
Thank you!
I believe the cycle of every life begins in the heart, is carried through a pulse, to support the body.
For me, at the heart of it all, is my family, who without question said “Yes! When?” after we were asked to join so many others in securing placement of the Ridglan beagles.
Through the prep work, management, and clean-up, I couldn’t have said “yes, when?” without my family ♥️
It is my hope ALL of us will share awareness of the state of nonhuman animals currently in research and how research can be done by partnering with nonhuman animals (more on this, later).
Today I spent time with our resident dogs by visiting the best private dog park in Sun Prairie (IMO).
I was humbled how trusting and full of joy my dogs were as they were asked to hop into a car not knowing where they’d end up.
I hope someday the beagles, and every nonhuman animal everywhere, gets to feel that trust and joy as our resident nonhuman animals do 🙏
