Because beagles are among the animals most favored by pharmaceutical companies throughout the world for medical and beauty-product experimentation. And although they could go on to live their lives after they are no longer useful, they are generally euthanized. Happily, some countries encourage an alternative: rehabilitation and adoption.

Because they are gentle and docile, and they do not respond violently when harmed.

We rescue beagles around the world by taking them from laboratories at the end of experimental protocols, or from partner organizations that are also engaged in the fight to end animal suffering.

If you work in a lab where beagles are destined for euthanasia, please don’t hesitate to contact us: info@beaglesofburgundy.org.

Surviving beagles, who grew up in cages their entire lives, need to learn about everything: grass and nature; how to respond to their names; how to play, to be on a leash, to stay clean, and to understand commands. They are puppies in adult dogs’ bodies. Beagles of Burgundy helps them understand what it means to be alive and acclimates them to their new life. The trauma of their past makes them fearful at first, but if they are loved and protected, they quickly recover and embrace their new lives.
