Stop Dalhousie University from murdering dogs and puppies.

Stop Dalhousie University from murdering dogs and puppies.

Stop Dalhousie University from murdering dogs and puppies

Every year many animals are being dissected at Dalhousie University.

Kittens have had their eyes sewn shut at Dalhousie. Dogs, cats, rabbits, mice and rats are routinely stabbed with needles, tubes forced down their mouths, hearts and brains dissected while still alive.

This is unnecessary and cruel. Let's stop the animal testing forever.

In Great Britain, it's against the law for medical (and veterinary) students to practice surgery on animals, and British physicians are just as competent as those educated elsewhere.

Here is an article from Jan 2007 (Donald E. Mitchell from Department of Psychology, Dalhousie University) where  the kittens have a craniotomy, titanium chamber cemented to their skulls and the exposed brain was illuminated with green light. After the study, the kittens were killed via an i.v. overdose of barbiturate.

Here is an article done on dogs by the Departments of Surgery, Physiology and Biophysics, and Anesthesiology, Faculty of Medicine, Dalhousie University. 9 dogs that were artificially ventilated and underwent thoracotomy.

John Sullivan and the Division of Cardiovascular Surgery at Dalhousie and the QEII Hospital still use dogs (denervated hearts) as well as nitric oxide rabbits.

Mice at Dal:

Animal care facilities at Dalhousie University include large animal holding and experimental laboratories at the Tupper Building (10,000 square feet), and at the IWK Grace Health Centre (4,000 square feet).

What kind of people do this? They must not be human, rather a machine so cold and tortured that they have lost all feeing and senses. Inhumanity, at it's finest. Thanks Dalhousie....for showing us all what depravity you are all capable of of.....

There are other ways to assimilate operations and studies by using technology.....it is not necessary to use animals and should be against the law.

How can anyone experiment on a helpless animal? They feel pain and suffering just like you and I. Look into their eyes before you start your experiments next time and see if you don't want to drop the knife. If you still go ahead, you are completley heartless.

Animal testing and animal cruelty of any sort is absolutly sickening! We have stipid laws on the books ranging from picking your nose to what time of day and what type of sex you can have.But these animals that do have pain receptors in their brains as we do and cannot protect themselves and need us to do that for them.
