I didn't like this video and chose a long time ago to avoid Iams (although I'm not sure how we can be sure it is from there?). SD and RC do animal testing, but there is no indication thus far that it would look anywhere near as terrible as this.
But all that said, some of these things are done in veterinary hospitals everyday. Dogs are tied down during surgery. They have masks on their faces sometimes. They have tubes in their throats. They lay on the floor to recover. And if they aren't breathing, I wouldn't doubt that somebody would hit their chest. They are also force fed sometimes. While I don't like seeing the kinds of things they are doing, I'm not sure it's quite as bad as it looks.
