Please sign the Petition for these poor 60 dogs. They only have less than 2 days to live. Please forward to everyone you know who may write a letter. We can make a difference for them ! Can you help PCRM end the dog lab at the Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW)? Every spring, the medical college uses 60 live dogs in a first-year physiology course. At the end of the class, the dogs are killed. Labs like this were once common, but today more than 85 percent of U.S. medical schools have implemented humane and effective alternatives. MCW owns four state-of-the-art human patient simulators specifically designed to replace animal use for physiology teaching, so MCW president Michael Bolger could implement humane alternatives immediately. Sixty dogs are slated to be used and killed in a live animal lab at the Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW) in 11 days. Please join PCRM members and physicians for a demonstration to save these animals on Feb. 26—the day the lab is scheduled to begin. We will be joined by members of the Wisconsin Humane Society. Protest: What: Doctors lead peaceful demonstration at MCW When: Mon., Feb. 26, 8:15 a.m. The lab is scheduled to begin on this day. Location: North 87th St. at MCW’s main entrance (between Watertown Plank Rd. and Wisconsin Ave.), Milwaukee Parking: Please use public parking on Watertown Plank Rd. or other adjacent streets. Please carpool when possible. Signs will be provided. Please make sure to dress warmly. No RSVP is required. Can't Protest? Sign the Petition to stop the lab.
