Ban immediately the use of dogs in scientific and regulatory procedures
- 251,787 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 259,211 - 339 added in the past 24hrs)
As a first step to end animal testing, we want an immediate ban for dogs. They are commercially bred in what we see as bleak and inhumane factory-like conditions. We believe there is evidence suggesting that dogs are left being unattended for extended periods in a Government-licenced establishment.
