How would you feel if you knew a laboratory used by the makers of Frontline was shut down because of abuse? That’s exactly what happened. Professional Laboratory and Research Services (PLRS) located in North Carolina was shut down after video of workers abusing animals became public. Bayer (advantix), Merial (Frontline), Sergeant’s and other companies used this lab to test their products. A black cocker spaniel named Sammy was among the 200 rescued from PLRS. Wake County’s ASPCA is providing Sammy and others medical care. They can tell he’s been traumatized as he cowers in fear from them.
Contact the SPCA of Wake County if you are interested in Sammy or the others.
Edit: The Triangle Beagle Rescue of NC also took 35 beagles which are available for adoption.
