Purdue University is Wrong.

I just read a really disturbing story on the PETA website. It seems that Purdue Universitys' Veterinary Technology program inserts catheters into healthy dogs, who are killed following the experiment if students are unable to find a home for them. It seems that a distraught Vet Tech student emailed PETA with this information. According to what I have read, the Vet Tech students themselves are burdened with the task of finding homes for the animals used in these unnecessary procedures. And, the penalty for not finding a home, is death for the dogs. This is beyond wrong. PETA's Director of Research puts it this way. "Purdue is exploiting these dogs and its students. Dogs are not test tubes with tails. Holding the threat of death over the students heads is traumatic for the students, and it also means that the dogs could end up in unsuitable homes where they may face even more abuse and neglect."
