1,500 beagles removed from Wisconsin research facility through negotiated purchase agreement

Big Dog Ranch Rescue and the Center for a Humane Economy negotiated a confidential agreement to purchase 1,500 beagles from Ridglan Farms in Wisconsin for an undisclosed price. The facility had been the site of protests and a break-in in March where 30 dogs were taken. Big Dog Ranch Rescue is working to place 1,000 of the dogs in homes nationwide and has already received over 700 adoption applications.
