Beagles need help

[Zebra 10]

From a friend's status this morning ...... I have just been to my local pet shop and she's asked me to spread the news, there are 13 beagle puppies looking for a home, there was 25 fortunately 12 are now spoken for, these puppies are FREE to good homes they are from a animal testing centre (testing vacines on them) the testing centre is closing and if they are not found homes in "2" days they will be put to sleep!!!! if you are interested or know anyone that would like one PLEASE contact Deano at J.G.Bestwick 0n 01332 343156...if we save one more its a life. thanks

why has nobody contacted Beagle Welfare?

 

Jeez - the last thing anybody should be doing is giving beagles away for free - they are challenging little animals to share a home with

Errr....Are you sure they were not 'liberated'? I have a friend of a friend who often had multiples of beagles to rehome. They usually were from scientific establishments and lets just say..their passports weren't exactly valid!

[Zebra 10]

I didn't even know there was one but now I know I'll post back on the status

[Zebra 10]

I've no idea Spats, just too much of a soft touch to imagine animals being put down so I figured this was the place.

that's a good point actually

 

*disappears to see if any hunting packs are missing a litter*

[spats 10]

Yes..sometimes they were from hunting packs also. Just thought I'd mention it in case they may have been microchipped or something already.

[Zebra 10]

OK, passed the Beagle Welfare info back to the original person so fingers crossed

[Strix 11]

it may be best to remove the contact info from the OP Zebra - just in case they are stolen

[Zebra 10]

Well, I rang Deano, who tells me they are 3 months olds, socialised and toilet trained and have come to the end of their lab useful 'life'. His shop have offered help after a lady called Carole told him about it.

Given the details he gave me and a few minutes internet sleuthing, there is a testing facility close to his shop and which does do that sort of testing so it seems legit.

I'm inclined to leave the number up for now as I think, by route, that this is likely to be genuine.

However, apparently this particular facility does this with some regularity, so maybe the Beagle place need to know about it for future reference.

What area is this in? and can the RSPCA not help at all?

[Strix 11]

I wonder what they've been 'vaccinated' with????
