Melanie Kaplan adopted a beagle who had spent years in a research lab. Her questions about how her dog became a lab experiment led her to investigate what had occurred to lead to this. In her journey to find answers, the author examines how and why her dog became an experiment subject. As he delves into the story, she takes readers on a journey through labs and discusses all things related to researchers. She provides a fascinating tale of things that became what they are today. This book provides answers to fill in the many gaps interested readers may have. It also provides good background and insights into how the many organizations who fight for animals came to be and exist, as well as providing some detail about their origins and development in the world of animal care and concern. It should be required reading for anyone who genuinely cares and is concerned about our furry friends. I received this from NetGalley to read and review.
