Young-Williams Animal Center welcoming 20 beagles that were rescued from a mass-breeding facility in Virginia that intended to sell the dogs to laboratories for experimentation.

These dogs were just a portion of the more than 4,000 beagles being rescued from the Envigo facility as part of a historic Humane Society rescue operation.

The dogs received by Young Williams have received health evaluations and will be placed in emergency foster homes until they are available for adoption.

They will list the dogs on their website when they are eligible for adoption which they say will likely take a couple of weeks.
