With respect to vivisection, dissection, etc. Well, that is science for now. The info learned in this way is invaluable. However, there is comfort in knowing that there are institutions which are actively researching alternate methodology like the RSPCA, for example. |
Yes I do know the value of research, I and I do know there are very many organizations including science based ones that look at new and evolving technology that can help conduct good science without going through the necessity of killing the lab animals.
I will always be pro-active on health. The thyroid posting is not just for Yorkies but truly for many many breeds and those breeders. It also,I hope will serve as a heads up for many pet owners who want to be pro-active in their health care of their dogs, rather than re-active.
