I COULD BE USED IN PAINFUL RESEARCH EXPERIMENTS! :*(
Plz DO NOT call and COMPLAIN at the SHELTERS as it is HURTING the animals.
Mecosta and Gratiot counties are the two counties remaining in Michigan who practice pound seizure. Shelter pets are sold or given to class B dealers for use in experiments and research. The dealer often takes the most adoptable animals. These animals, once trusting family pets, are much easier for the researchers to handle.
THESE DOGS COULD BE HEADED TO A RESEARCH LAB IF NOT ADOPTED OR RESCUED as Gratiot County Animal Control is one of two remaining counties in Michigan that still gives shelter pets to be used in research.
THIS SHELTER SEND THEIR ANIMALS TO RESEARCH LABS IF NOT SAVED! PLEASE SHARE
******************************************************************************* IMPORTANT NOTE plz READ
Patience MillerMichigan shelters that sell to the dealers.
PLEASE do not call the shelters and complain or verbally abuse whoever answers the phone. This will only make matters worse for the dogs and prevent them from being rescued. You will only hurt the animals and do NO good at all by calling and complaining. You will prevent good rescues from helping these dogs and cats.
Also be careful! Not all rescues are good rescues and sadly the bad rescues don't even know they are bad! If you want this to stop, write your representative in the Michigan Legislature and ask them to ban it! And to also ban killing dogs and cats using a gas chamber.
Not all homes are good homes either....dogs can be tied outside or worse. Trying to save this dogs is good, but maybe helping the rescues that have been doing this for the past 8 years may be a good idea?
You never know who will get this dogs by simply crossposting. I can give you contact information of the rescues who have been doing this and are good ones. The shelters may stop posting the dogs or allowing people in to take pictures if it causes a fuss. The way to stop this is to GET A LAW passed.
Please tell people not to call the shelter unless they want to adopt! It may make the person feel better to yell at someone but it could cost dogs their lives!

BAN POUND SEIZURE
Pound seizure is the sale or release of cats and dogs from a pound or shelter to a research, testing or educational facility.
It is hard to imagine that dogs and cats are still being used as expendable tools in lethal experiments. It is a difficult fact that some of these animals were once accustomed to life in a human home and are now confined within a laboratory cage. Three states in the U.S.—Minnesota, Ohio, and Oklahoma—still legally require that publicly funded shelters and pounds provide dogs and/or cats to institutions for experimental or educational purposes, and other states allow it. Several states have no law either way.
This horrible practice is a small, but troubling facet of the animal experimentation industry.

Stop the Selling of Shelter Animals for Lab Research
Folks, you need to know that the local rescue groups are committed to doing the very best they can and we need to be so careful not to damage their good relationship with these facilities or all hope is lost for these animals. Nobody is angrier about this than me, but PLEASE address your outrage with the city commissioners listed below, NOT the shelter staff! Harassing Ken & his staff, making rude... or threatening comments, can only serve to do more harm than good. I hope to use this cause as proof of public disgust at this practice, a form of leverage to get laws changed & contracts broken... it will never change fast enough for me, but I assure you that getting labeled kooks or terrorists will NOT help this cause, it will just guarantee that dogs like Chip will keep getting sold to labs. Thanks for your passion, your activism and your discretion! http://www.facebook.com/pages/Stop-the-Selling-of-Shelter-Animals-for-Lab-Research/166777736757062?sk=wall
