Bringing 50 Beagles from Lab to Love: An Incredible Journey

An exciting development dawns upon us at The Beagle Alliance, where compassion and dedication ensure a better future for our furry friends. I’m Lori Cohen, Executive Director of The Beagle Alliance, and I’m thrilled to share some monumental news with you. As we embrace this giving season, our mission is clear: to secure the release of 50 former research beagles from animal testing facilities in the U.S. and bring them back home to Canada in 2025.


It’s a massive undertaking. We are euphoric, grateful, but candidly—we need your help.


The Ambitious Mission: Welcoming 50 Beagles Home

This significant rescue initiative is not just a milestone but a cornerstone for many others potentially to follow. Picture 50 dogs, once confined to cages, now given a second chance to live, love, and roam free. While our hearts are full, the logistics and resources required for such a venture are substantial.

  • Foster-based Beginnings: A core aspect of our operation is our foster-based system. These dedicated homes provide a nurturing environment until the beagles find their forever homes.

  • Enrichment Centre: Our plans also encompass creating a Lab Love Liberty Enrichment Centre for former research beagles — a sanctuary if some of these incredible dogs need a stop along the way to their forever homes or some extra support adjusting to their newfound freedom.

Why We Need You: The Journey Isn’t Possible Alone

Welcoming 50 beagles represents more than numbers; it’s about lives. Lives that require love, patience and immense support. As we prepare to bring them to Manitoba, we’re eager for them to go directly into loving homes. But if homes aren’t immediately available, they need a soft landing transition.

"These dogs deserve to go from LAB to LOVE."

Here’s how you can make a difference:

  • Be a Foster Hero: Open your home and provide a loving transition.

  • Donate: Your funds help cover transportation, medical checks, and enrichment needs.

  • Spread the Word: Share our mission within your community and networks.

Mapping the Miles: A Nation-wide Commitment

Imagine this: travel itineraries mapping out weeks, months, of meeting new fosters from east to west. Our journey is extensive. Each mile travelled represents pathways to freedom and joy for these beagles. Brenda—consider yourself notified: road trips aplenty await us!

Rescuing with Purpose: Paving the Way for the Future

Our efforts transcend this rescue season. We diligently lay the groundwork, ensuring facilities throughout Canada recognize that they can entrust these gentle animals to us. Rest assured, they can live many more years outside the cage than inside.

A Call to Action This Giving Season

In times like these, collective efforts can spark monumental change. We encourage you to search within your heart and contribute to our our lifesaving mission. Be it through fostering, donations, or supporting our logistics—the power lies in unity and our community.


50 beagles await freedom. An opportunity to transform lives, allowing these beautiful beagles to experience safety, love and freedom, is within our reach. Let them go from LAB to LOVE with your incredible help - one beagle at a time.

Thank you for standing with us and being part of this life-changing journey.
