Aren't those animals being tested and properly observed actually monitored awfully closely with fairly frequent "visuals & vitals" checks, quickie neuro's & such so as to catch systemic changes ASAP and vet checked daily or according to a schedule? That is something that I, as a petowner, could never do properly. As much as I hate to say it, I am very happy that my dog doesn't have to be a guinea pig for every product a company puts on the market untried, untested. Just as happy as I am that the drugs & products I use are tested before I use them on myself or my family.
