Act Now: Appallingly Thin Dogs Caged in Metal Cells at This University

Action Alert

Dear Aaaaaaa,

At Texas A&M University (TAMU), golden retrievers are being bred to develop canine muscular dystrophy (MD) and then experimented on. The disease ravages their bodies. However, these experiments haven't led to a cure or even a treatment to reverse MD symptoms in humans.

TAMU lead experimenter, Joe Kornegay (above), smiles in front of a presentation showing a crippled golden retriever from the muscular dystrophy experiments.

 

Video footage of the school's laboratory shows that appallingly thin dogs were caged, sometimes alone, in barren metal cells and struggled to swallow thin gruel—the only food that they could eat, because their condition means that they could choke easily. Long ropes of saliva hung from the mouths of dogs whose jaw muscles had become weakened. Even balancing and walking was difficult for them.

Please, help PETA put an end to this.

 
Take Action
 

Thank you for everything that you do to help animals imprisoned in laboratories.

Sincerely,
