Sources of the University of Michigan’s Lost or Surrendered Dogs
Gratiot, Mecosta, and Montcalm county animal shelters (blue points) provide Class B animal dealer R&R Research (yellow point) with live dogs who are sold to the University of Michigan (red point) for Advanced Trauma Life Support courses. At UM, these courses involve cutting open live, anesthetized dogs and practicing emergency medical procedures. After the training session, the animals are killed. This happens even though UM owns a validated nonanimal teaching method as part of its state-of-the-art medical simulation center. Learn more about some of the dogs who were sold to UM and help us end the use of animals in UM’s ATLS course.
