Author and advocate Ellie Hansen interviewed Director, Lori Cohen. The honour was all ours as Ellie is a hero! Her book “Laboratory Dogs Rescued” is so important and features some very important celebrities on the cover: Mini and Maria, the two blind beagles rescued by partner, Mary Pryor, who is not only The Beagle Alliance Rescue and Volunteer Director but also founded Cage To Couch Rescue In California.
In Ellie’s words:
Lori Cohen’s life changed forever when she got her first beagle and discovered the painful truth that dogs are still used in large numbers for experimental research globally—including her home country of Canada. She was so moved to help research dogs and help change the paradigm of animal testing that she founded her own rescue organization called The Beagle Alliance.
Lori is currently the executive director of The Beagle Alliance, based in Manitoba, and their mission is to give dogs and other animals used in experimental research and situations of abuse and neglect a second chance at life. Lori reveals the challenges she faces trying to rescue dogs from research laboratories in Canada, and more about their critical mission throughout North America.
Let’s make change together, see how you can be a part of the movement.
Please consider speaking with your MP about animal free science. These innovative methods have already proven to be more effective for humans, less expensive - and of course would save the lives of so many animals.
10 Former Research Beagles will find new homes in Canada. The Beagle Alliance is looking for foster/adopters in Canada and U.S.
We are funded by donations, grants and fundraisers.
