🐾 UNCAGED: ISSUE #4- Pet Stores & Beagle Abuse: What They Don’t Want You to Know
Major pet retailers are selling products tied to a company that breeds beagles for painful laboratory testing.
🔎 TODAY’S FOCUS
Right now, stores like Petco, PetSmart, Chewy, Value Pet Supplies, and That Pet Place are all linked to a horrifying industry by selling products from Marshall Pet Products. This brand is owned by Marshall BioResources, a massive company that breeds beagles and other animals for one reason: to sell them to laboratories for painful testing.
Beagles are a target for lab use because of their sweet, passive personalities. But their trust is betrayed the moment they’re born into metal cages, and they never feel grass under their paws or a gentle hand for comfort.
⚠️ THE TRUTH ABOUT MARSHALL
At Marshall BioResources’ New York breeding facility, thousands of animals—mainly beagles, ferrets, and other species—are kept in warehouse-like buildings with little to no enrichment or veterinary oversight. These facilities are USDA-licensed, but inspections have shown chronic violations, including filthy conditions and animals in poor health.
Once sold, these beagles can be:
• Force-fed toxic chemicals
• Subjected to invasive surgeries without pain relief
• Used in neurological, cardiac, and chemical exposure tests
• Killed at the end of experimentation
And none of this is illegal under current U.S. animal testing laws.
📢 WHY THIS MATTERS
Consumers unknowingly support this cycle of cruelty every time they buy a Marshall-branded dog toy or ferret treat. Pet stores profit, while animals suffer behind closed doors.
This isn’t just about dogs in labs — it’s about a broken system that values profit over life, and your voice can help change it.
