Ridglan Farms Closes for Good

Ridglan Farms, once a major beagle breeding facility for research, is closing permanently—thanks to Big Dog Ranch Rescue’s heroic intervention to rehome hundreds of dogs before August 2026. Over 475 beagles are set for adoption, marking the end of breeding, testing, and sales as promised by the rescue’s CEO. Meanwhile, the U.S. government steps up with a new office dedicated to ending animal testing. Ridglan Farms’ staff urge an end to harassment, while wishing the dogs well in their new lives—signaling a hopeful shift toward humane science and forever homes.
