This Is The Plan to Save All the Dogs in Labs
You helped us win the fight for the Ridglan dogs. But there are still tens of thousands of beagles trapped in labs. This is the moment to save them all, as we have unprecedented support behind our movement. (Just yesterday, two members of the presidential Cabinet, including RFK, posted a video in support of the Ridglan rescue.) If we ride the momentum, we can rescue every one of the 40,000+ dogs destined for torture or death in labs across the US by the end of 2026.
RSVP here for the 1-hour Zoom briefing on Sunday at 3 pm ET / 12 pm PT where we’ll answer your questions—and get your feedback—about this plan.
We’ll achieve this by focusing on the biggest abuser of them all: the global vivisection giant Marshall BioResources (MBR). MBR has a massive fortress-like facility in North Rose, New York, with more beagles than any lab in the nation—nearly 20,000. And the MBR dogs are victims of chemical warfare, trained to breathe phosgene gas that will drown their lungs in pools of blood. Despite decades of abuses such as these, and a long list of legal violations, the government has refused to protect the MBR dogs.
So we must.
Our strategy at MBR will be simple: organize, campaign, and rescue. We will organize community events that awaken the nation’s conscience. We will campaign to ensure every candidate for office takes a stand. And if the politicians don’t act to save the dogs by Nov 3—Election Day—we will mobilize the largest rescue network in human history to peacefully march from the state capital to MBR to save them ourselves.
In the wake of our rescue, every politician will be challenged to face the public and choose: side with the puppy abusers, or the puppy rescuers. When the dust settles, they’ll side with us.
The strategy will proceed in three stages.
In stage 1, we organize. We’ll recruit 100 regional teams to host “Puppies and Ice Cream” meetups in July of 2026, or other similarly themed events. At churches, universities, or the living rooms of our supporters, we’ll serve delicious vegan sundaes and introduce people to rescue pups. Dog parents across the nation will come to our meetups for community and support. (We all need people we can trust to babysit our furry families!) Others will come for the free food and adorable dogs. We’ll welcome everyone to join, even if they’re afraid to hold a protest sign. But the meetups will end with an inspiring video and ask: join the community to rescue the dogs tortured in labs.
In stage 2, we campaign. We’ll press every politician to take a stand on cutting funding for experiments on dogs and mandating rescue instead. We will use the story of the Ridglan rescue to push all 15,000 candidates for office to make a public statement in support of the MBR rescue. We’ll break volunteers into teams of 10, assign each of them 15 candidates to reach, and give them an AI-powered toolkit to make their mini-campaigns go viral. Every public statement by a politician will be celebrated and posted to savethedogs.io, blown up on social media, and leveraged to push even more candidates to support the rescue. By the end, we’ll have the most powerful people in the nation on our side.
In stage 3, we rescue. Beginning in late July, we’ll organize nonviolence trainings across the nation to prepare 10,000+ people for open rescue. The training will become part of the story, as the largest network of rescuers in history prepares to descend on MBR. We’ll take the lessons from April 18 and create the smartest, fastest, and most courageous team of rescuers the movement has ever seen—with key infrastructure in place to ensure safe rehoming of dogs and informed risk-taking by rescuers. On or around Oct 3—one month before Election Day—we’ll head to MBR with a movement that is 10 times as large as what we had at Ridglan. In the aftermath of the rescue effort, we will bring the fight for the right to rescue not just into the court of law but into the center of national politics.
When the world is asked to choose—puppy abuse or puppy rescue—it will choose rescue. We’ll create unstoppable momentum to free every last animal from a lab.
