I’m facing up to 12 years in prison.
I’m being charged with felonies for rescuing dogs from abuse.
This trial could decide whether rescuing animals is a crime.
Ripping the vocal cords out of a dog is NOT a crime, but rescuing a dog IS—according to the Dane County Sheriff.
My response to the bizarre video posted by the authorities yesterday.
Some of these diseases are zoonotic, meaning they could spread from chickens to humans or to other animals. Evidence was even found that the Petaluma Poultry slaughterhouse boils chickens alive. Learn more at https://t.co/kmiWaOVSXR
Investigations into their Petaluma Poultry subsidiary have exposed baby chickens routinely die slow, painful deaths from disease, injury, and neglect. Testing has revealed that Petaluma Poultry farms have abnormally high rates of viruses and bacteria infecting birds.
One of the rescued dogs from this facility it was my pleasure to adopt eight years ago. She has the sweetest nature, love just bubbles out of her. Please help save them all.
3000 lab beagles face torture and death. This week, we’ll have a chance to save them all – but we need your help.
On Oct 23, we will present evidence of animal cruelty to a Dane County court, including whistleblower accounts of dogs being subjected to surgical mutilation without anesthesia or painkillers. Our legal case is strong, but the biomedical industry in the county is a political giant.
We need to show the political system in Dane County that the people in this nation and world stand with the dogs. Make a post on October 23 on social media and tag Governor Tony Evers of Wisconsin, and ask him to #ProtectTheDogs.
For 20+ years Ridglan has reported having thousands of dogs. Mysteriously in 2021 3,000+ dogs vanished off their reports. Did Ridglan Farms kill thousands of dogs en masse? Or do the dogs still exist and Ridglan is falsifying their reports? This large discrepancy in the number of dogs at Ridglan Farms is evidence against the claim that the animal experimentation industry is highly regulated. The animal experimentation industry is so poorly regulated that thousands of dogs can disappear with no explanation.
It feels so wonderful to me to awaken to perceiving animals as beings with their own rights instead of property! I feel that how we treat individuals with less power in our society reflects on all of us.
Americans don’t want to see prosecutors use their resources to put animal rescuers in prison. Recent polling data showed that over two thirds of Americans do not believe it should be a crime “to take an animal out of an environment where they are being mistreated.” 73% of Americans agreed that “Animals deserve rights, including the right to shelter, food, water and humane treatment. If these rights are violated, people should intervene.”
Currently, prosecutors in Wisconsin are working to put three animal rescuers in prison for rescuing dogs from Ridglan Farms, a laboratory breeding facility. They go to trial in less than 2 weeks. 69% of Americans indicated that they do not believe that it should be a crime to remove dogs from cages inside of a facility that is breeding them for experimentation.
Prosecutors in Sonoma County, California are currently trying to charge a DxE animal rescuer for saving four chickens from a transport truck at a Perdue slaughterhouse. 65% of Americans indicated they do not believe rescuing chickens from a transport truck should be a crime.

Did you know that beagles exploited by Ridglan are ‘socialized’ - not to provide them with love and connection in their lives as these dogs yearn for - but to condition them to allow strangers to poke, prod, and hurt them when it comes time for them to be used in labs.
Beagles abused in the animal experimentation industry are also specifically bred to be docile... so that it's easier for humans to abuse them.
Join us in standing against in industry at the Ridglan Beagle Rescue Trial. Trial starts in just 18 days!

Rescuing dogs could land you in jail in the US and in the UK. Do you think that helping animals is a crime? #RightToRescue
