Some very good news for most of the ridglan beagles

1,500 of the nearly 2,000 beagles imprisoned at Ridglan Farms in Blue Mounds, Wisconsin are finally being removed from cages and given a chance at the life they always deserved — a life free from experimentation, suffering, and fear.

So far, 1,000 dogs have already been rescued, with another 500 expected to leave next week. And while we celebrate every single dog who has made it out, no one has forgotten about the remaining 500. We are hopeful more good news is coming soon.

The internet is now filled with heartwarming photos and videos of these sweet beagles touching grass, feeling sunshine, sleeping safely, and experiencing freedom for what is the very first time. It’s impossible not to be moved watching them discover the world beyond the terrible cages.

If you have ever considered opening your home to a rescued dog, this is an extraordinary moment to help. These beagles need loving families, lots of patience, kindness, and a soft place to land as they begin their new lives.

Wisconsin’s Latest Issues

  • Ridglan Farms

    In Dane County, outside of Mount Horeb a For Profit facility keeps over 4,000 beagles locked in cages, under 24/7 fluorescent light, to be sold for unnecessary, painful, cruel, animal testing.

  • Gassing The Geese

    The City of Madison uses TAXPAYER MONEY to exterminate the geese they consider a nuisance who live in the park system. We want the city of Madison to embrace NON LETHAL practices in Geese Management

  • Wisconsin's Unnecessary Decimation of Wolf Populations

    Wisconsin State Agencies are deciding the permissible amount of wolves to kill annually. Special interest groups are pushing for extreme levels of population culling. Wolves are necessary for an ecological balance protecting against economic and health human negative impacts.
