«Breaking News» Fury over plan to kill six dogs as part of lab experiment testing dental implants in Sweden

Six Labradors will be killed at the end of a medical trial testing dental implants at a Swedish laboratory.

The two-year-old animals will be killed at the University of Gothenburg so that researchers can continue to test how the implants alter bone and tissue.

As part of the testing, each of the black Labradors have had more than a third of their teeth extracted and replaced with implants.

The Djurrättsalliansen (Animal Rights Alliance) is trying to prevent Venus, Milia, Mimosa, Luna, Lotus and Zuri being killed at the end of their treatment.

The Local reported Göran Landberg, Deputy Vice-Chancellor for Research at the university, as saying: 'It's difficult for us to reach a consensus on these issues, but dialogue is important.

'As we see it, animal experiments are still needed in some kinds of research, to develop new medicines and treatment methods and gain basic knowledge.'

More than 80,000 people have signed the petition put forward by the Animal Rights Alliance.

But the chairman of the organisation has said that despite the signatures 'in two weeks they will be killed' the Harliga Hund reported.

The case has drawn outcry in Swedish media, with a vet called Mark Collins recently speaking on TV4 to deplore the treatment of the dogs.

Mr Collins said 'I do not understand at all' - he described how removing a Labrador's teeth requires great force and would put them in substantial pain.

He added that because of the close bond they have with humans the treatment they have received would leave the dogs 'emotionally broken'. 

Under Swedish regulations animal testing is allowed only if researchers can prove it is the only way to obtain the information.

The university have received this approval and say that the research is being carried out by a highly qualified team, which includes vets.

But the Animal Rights Alliance allege in their investigation they uncovered notes relating to the pup called Venus which revealed she was being treated for 'lying sores on her elbows.'

They also said the dog was being kept in a cold room. 

Dogs were selected for the dental tests because of the similarity between their saliva and oral bacteria and that of humans.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
