Mooshu was an abandoned dog found on the streets of China, and was brought to the US in January 2018. Mooshu is very snuggly and sassy! He loves to be around people and dogs, and loves to hang out in the backyard. While he has a deformed paw, that does not stop Mooshu one bit. He is a playful guy that loves to explore.

Rousseau: My family found me because they like to hang out with my foster mom. They fell in love with me right from the start, and their beagle (Wally) didn’t have much longer to live.

Finley’s Story
“We take our role as Finley’s advocate very seriously and do our best to share her story, our knowledge of vivisection, BFP, the Cruelty-Cutter app and living cruelty-free to everyone we can.” The Hildebrandt family is proud to present Miss Finley Faith, also known as Finney, Finnaroo, and Faenerys (cue Game of Thrones fans). The lives of Dave, Jessica, Addison (13), Hadley (12) and Delaney (9) Hildebrandt have changed dramatically since learning about the Beagle Freedom Project (now Beagle Freedom Project). Mom, Jessica, was first to come across the organization’s…
Life Saving Laws
It’s a simple and common-sense idea, when dogs and cats are no longer needed in experiments they should get a chance at a real life…. full of freedom and affection. All the labs have to do is not kill them. Sadly, many in the laboratory industry would prefer to do just that and are fighting to kill this bill (and the dogs).

Big Hearts!
The heart is the strongest and hardest working muscle in a body. Its constant beating gives us life. It endures years of 24/7 labor and fluctuates with our activity. It is also, metaphorically, the most fragile part of all of us, sensitive to slights and so easily broken by betrayal. It never ceases to amaze any of us involved in rescue work just resilient the laboratory survivors are. Both biologically and metaphorically “the heart” it takes for a sweet little beagle, like Yoyo, to endure nine years of caged confinement,…
Mimi's Story
It’s Wednesday, so that means it’s time for ‘Where are they Now?’. This week we travel back to California to meet Mimi from the NorCal 11rescue.

They already had two dogs but knew they had to try to adopt from a rescue organization. BFP: How did you get your name? Mimi: My other…
Eagles and beagles: Super Bowl champ Torrey Smith featured in billboard in support of 'Beagle Bill'
Former Ravens wide receiver Torrey Smith, who will now have two Super Bowl rings thanks to the Philadelphia Eagles’ victory over the New England Patriots on Sunday, is still making his presence known in Baltimore.

In the ad, the former Terp holds a beagle, whose name is Lucia, alongside the tagline,…
Teddy's Story
“I will always be his voice. I will always tell his story to anyone who will listen to me, even if they won’t listen. I’ll keep trying.” For Betty and Julio Bare, loving a research beagle came at a cost: Grief. They lost their beloved research beagle, Teddy, at the age of 15. That’s a lifetime of love for most dogs, but for Teddy, who spent the first 14 years of his life as a test subject in a research lab, 15 months of freedom with the Bare family was…
