From Test Subjects to Beloved Companions

“One cannot escape a form of enlightenment in reading Laboratory Dogs Rescued. It is a beautiful testament to those who choose acts of kindness over cruelty and are rewarded with love. We must sometimes speak the unspeakable to shed light on it. Ellie Hansen’s book does just that, with grace. May its truth inspire change.”—Jennifer Skiff, author of The Divinity of Dogs: True Stories of Miracles Inspired by Man’s Best Friend

When the author adopted Marty—a beagle rescued from a research laboratory—she found herself rehabilitating a terrified dog with a traumatic past. She soon discovered the well-kept secret of painful and often fatal testing on dogs. This book details what the author has learned about the past and present of laboratory testing on dogs, life after laboratories and the hope for a future without animal testing. Interviews with rescue organizers and adoptive families reveal the struggles of removing dogs from laboratories and acclimating them to daily life.
