📞 Phone

  1. Hi, my name is [your name]. I am a member of the public and a concerned citizen. I was disturbed and shocked to learn about Merck Animal Health's affiliation with Ridglan Farms, the breeding and experimentation facility that has been in the news recently for abuse of more than 2,000 dogs.
  2. I am urging your company to condemn these practices and end its affiliation and contract with Ridglan Farms immediately.
  3. Archaic, cruel, wasteful and ineffective experimentation on animals hurts everyone.
  4. In the 21st Century, we have more humane and effective ways to advance science and your company can be part of that innovation. We have had these options available for more than two decades.
  5. The world is watching and waiting for you to do the right thing.

📱 Social

  1. @MerckAH — the public knows about your affiliation with Ridglan Farms, a breeding and experimentation facility at the heart of dog abuse and animal welfare violations for decades.
  2. We demand you end your contract with dog abuser Ridglan Farms.
  3. The world is watching and waiting for you to do the right thing.
  4. Join the 21st Century with humane and effective science and end your support of ineffective, archaic, cruel and wasteful dog experimentation.
  5. IIT Chicago has formally cut ties with Ridglan Farms. So can you.
