Forgive the intrusion as this post is not in the least watch related.
Beagles as some of you may be aware are still used for experimentation purposes, a practice which I hope most agree is barbaric at least in this modern age.
A petition is being raised to ask the British government to ban the practice - http://www.change.org/en-GB/petitio...-beagles-for-animal-experimentation-in-the-uk
Every vote counts and I hope some may feel inclined to take a minute and add there name to this cause.
Many thanks for taking the time to read through my ramblings.

I have signed the petition, since I believe all life, whether that of a human or an animal, belongs to the Almighty God. Only He can take that life away.

Thank-you.

 

Signed.

Hate acts of cruelty, especially to animals.

 

+1, interesting that they don't ask nationality. I thought to plea for one country law, you should be citizen of that country.

 

Signed.

 

Like your good self I wondered about the nationality question but it checked out ok!

Thanks to all, let's hope something can be done.

 

They can't treat Gromit that way.
I have signed the petition.

 

Why not use cats? Dogs are sweet and loyal. Cats are mostly aloof and facist.

(now awaiting replies from upper management )

 

Nice one Dennis, avoiding controversy as always

 

A co-worker once put it to me this way..if you fell dead on your kitchen floor...your dog would lie next to you and potentially die of starvation rather than leave your side....your cat on the other hand would probably eat you.

 

A couple of shots of how all Beagles should live - wonder who this one is ?

This Kitty says 'O nooo!, why me?' He will not be too happy with your counter-suggestion. Please re-consider, if you may.

Thank-you.

 

OK, we've signed.

 

Moving towards the target, lots of wee beagles sure will appreciate all your help.

 

Speaking of silly cats, here's my sister's whacky kitty. Scratches in a certain spot freeze the goofy animal and cause some crazy licking and expressions.

 

Alpha, signed and in full support.

Even Jackson Oliver Beauregard Dawg would have approved if he were still with us!

 

Jackson is a cool name for a big dog. Action Jackson, the 50 lb. 7 month old puppy!

 

Jackson was 95 pounds at his biggest with his sire and dam being over 130. He was the runt but he made up for it in a big heart and a warm wet kiss!
