Welcome Home, Frannie!

In June of 2014, ARME's Beagle Freedom Project rescued 7 beagles from a laboratory in the Northeast near Boston. This video documents our journey to Frannie and her first few months of freedom outside the lab.

Thank you for adopting Frannie. I adopted a laboratory beagle here in Germany. She was bred in the US and sold to Bayer labs here. After 2.5yrs as a lab beagle, she was freed. We need to go after the politicians and not the labs/breeders to stop lab testing. They are only following the law. We need to ban animal testing for cosmetics and household products at least. I, for one, am going to lobby the politicians to change the laws. Without a change in legislation, this will continue. I also wrote a letter to Bayer, Germany and thanked them for being part of a release program. It would have been much easier for them to euthanize her in secret instead of letting her go and possibly face scrutiny. I received a letter back from them thanking me for my letter. I named my Marshall beagle "Bella," which means beauty in Italian and she truly is a beauty. Such a beautiful dog.

My heart breaks! I’m a beagle owner and can’t imagine the pain these beautiful creatures are exposed to ! I would die if my poor Princess goes tru anything like that . Promise to always care for her in honor to those who have no one to be taken care for ! I love my dog and would do anything for her ! People need to become more human and care as well !

Thank you so much for adopting Frannie and for sharing this wonderful video! I am in my 60's and I have rescued 48 dogs, 2 cats, 12 chickens and 2 alpacas. It feels so good to see my kids relax and then become happy.

[@JimWorldLeader]

Thank you so much for helping these dogs. It's absolutely shameful in this day and age, we're still experimenting on them in laboratories.

[@mrsnewton87]

I am still crying i can't believe how sick people are to do stuff like that to a poor animal. You have done such a wonderful at the end when you got her my sadness turn to joy seeing her so happy and free. God bless you wonderful wonderful people.

[@rebeccago158]

You both are free and loves and happy treats both of everyone needs special loves cares and hugs and kisses food and new home new toys new life for beagles dogs

[@barbaraprokup410]

You are an amazing human being with an even more amazing beagle. I have joined the Beagle Freedom Project and would like to do more to help these beagles find a loving and caring home. Human beings doing harm to them should be brought before a court of law. God help human beings harming these wonderful creatures. Their judgement day lies ahead. Thank you for sharing this heart-warming story.

This is so beautiful 🦋💙🙏😇

God bless you for rescuing these dogs. I can't even imagine who these animal testing people are? How could someone do that to anything alive. We need to raise awareness to cruelty free products if these companies lose their customers one at a time in mass quantities to cruelty free products then maybe they will get the message that animal testing is unnecessary and they will stop doing it. I've changed recently all of the products in my house to cruelty free. It was not easy they don't make it easy to find cruelty free products and there's not a lot to choose from but I made the choice and I spent the time and I found cruelty free products. Everybody should put it on their social media about cruelty free products and make the change

Oh Frannie happy happy girl xxxxx

[@user-mn3yk6ym2m]

Lovely video u should b proud of yourself

[@maylee6759]

Welcome Home Frannie-- "You got 1 beagle out of that place."). Hopefully in the near future a lot of research? places can be shut down! There's a lot of cruel, unnecessary, heartless things done to animals in those places! Another sad but true fact about the situation is-- Big $$$ is paid to the people who are doing the procedures on the defenseless, innocent animals.

[@nazliwonder2432]

Thank you ...

[@tracymcgrath1192]

I have to help. We live in Boston ❤️🙏😘

[@estronfinojavardo2838]

Why do people dislike this?

[@lisaford8040]

Because they're evil people.

[@WabisG]

Super like!!!, I love the video!!!

[@Shilohpreston]

The Beagle that played Shiloh in "Shiloh" and "Shiloh 2: Shiloh Season" was named Frannie.

[@dluvsmmcd]

Wow!! Great video!! So sweet to see how loved and cared for Frannie is. As with every beagle freedom video I cried. Can't wait to move soon so we can finally apply. We have cats too so it's good to see Frannie and kitties getting along. 2 things,though. I heard there's a really long wait list so how long between applying and adopting was it? Also,any tips for introducing the beagle we'll hopefully adopt and our cats? Our kitties have not been around dogs.

[@brendakitts1196]

charlie brown and snoopy would be proud

[@bernadettevanderploeg9551]

Just horrible to see these dogs suffer. It is proven already that it is not necessary anymore to test on dogs. I own a Beagle and it is just disgusting what people do to animals in general!

[@learleywells4498]

There's a reason why she is drooling. If I were you, I would check why she is drooling. :(

[@voice4thevoicelessones]

This is an absolute OUTRAGE. Disgusting. How could they think it’s acceptable to not even by law allow the beagles daily outdoor exercise? What kind of monsters can do this or earn a paycheck working in this sickening industry?

[@italiandiva3532]

The people that call this torture to innocent beings a job, should be tortured the same way they torture this poor babies.

[@kathiedegeorge1845]

Who the hell do we think we are? Keeping our precious dogs in little prisons until WE think they should see this world!!! Terrible video
