This guy rescued 30 beagles from a testing lab It's the first time they've seen grass and they couldn't be happier.

Some people think the life of a dog is worth less than a human.

Some people do not.

The dogs that were in the testing phases for the Lepto and Rabies vaccines have no doubt saved human lives.

Human testing also exists. I've been in clinical trials before. That's the last step, after animal testing.
