Virginia Animal Rescue Saves 400 Research Beagles and Helps Them Find Forever Homes

An animal rescue in Fairfax, Virginia, has taken on the monumental task of orchestrating the intake of 400 beagles so the dogs can experience loving forever homes instead of lives spent in research.

Envigo, a facility that breeds beagles for research, was left with hundreds of “surplus” beagles after the COVID-19 pandemic slowed down demand. It reached out to the Homeward Trails Animal Rescue to see if something could be worked out.

The result was great news for families looking to add one of the bouncy hounds to their repertoire.

“Yesterday Homeward Trails took part in the first phase of what was one of the most memorable and meaningful efforts of our 20-year rescue activities,” Homeward Trails Animal Rescue posted on Facebook on Feb. 12. “We successfully facilitated the transfer of 150 perfectly adorably young Beagles from a Virginia based breeding facility.

  1. Dr. Fauci will be so unhappy to hear that! They took away his little experimental dogs that he so enjoyed torturing .

  2. What & the Hell has been going on in this country when Beagles are being used (ABUSED) ????

    Should be > ILLEGAL !!!!

  3. Thank God and these people my son has a beagle and none deserve this there should be a death sentence on anyone that does this.

  4. I didn’t click for More but it sounds like they faced an inventory problem when their normal ‘customers’ suddenly scaled back temporarily. Reaching out and getting some of the dogs actual homes was a good idea. Lucky for those pups and salute to the new owners. For Vax sceptics, humans replaced the dogs as the research animals.

    But, they’re still in the breeding business, correct? So when demand picks up they’ll be back to cranking out fresh puppies. Amirite?
