FOX6 News Milwaukee aired an in-depth segment on our joint investigation with The Marty Project, which exposes those who are still buying beagles from Ridglan Farms for use in research and testing — even as a court-mandated investigation into animal cruelty there looms. 

FOX6 Investigator Bryan Polcyn brought this story to a wide audience, shining a light on the grim facility that has, for decades, profited from the mass breeding of dogs for use in experiments.

Our investigation revealed, for the first time, the list of Ridglan’s recent clients and the numbers of dogs purchased by each one. Some of the dogs were “TO [sic] YOUNG” to receive even routine puppyhood vaccinations before being shipped off to the labs where they would meet their fates as test subjects. 

We obtained records that prove nearly 7,000 dogs have been sold by Ridglan to labs since 2022. 

To see the top buyers propping up Ridglan’s cruel business and to discover what this means in the context of the broader animal research industry, read our full investigation now.
