Dogs Are Robarked—
Only Burping Babies Bother
Sunnysiders can go back to sleep. With the exception of 2 a.m. B.F.T. (baby feeding time) nights are quiet, for the dogs at the animal house have been debarked.
Several weeks ago residents of Sunnyside complained that the noisy dogs disturbed their sleep, so the School of Medicine anaesthetized the pups and clipped their vocal cords.
They Feel No Pain
"It's a painless operation," explained Dr. Parke Woodard, associate professor of physiology. "When the dogs are unconscious we just slip a little instrument down their throats that snips the cords. It's much simpler than a tonsillectomy."
The pups aren't made entirely speechless. It's as if their voices had been changed. When the 30 dogs in the animal house yelp at passers-by now, it now sounds as if they all have laryngitis, yet each dog pusso-bark is different. Some have a windy sound, others rattle, while one white dog of Spitz background makes a sound like radio static.
Sunnysiders, with legitate complaints about the noise, are among the minor worries connected with the animal house. A big headache A-Moore and his school faculty is the Anti-Vivisectionist league. Think Science Sadistic
Anti-Vivisectionists are we all meaning but misguided people, who on the grounds of cruelty of animals, would stop all experimentation and research. They paint lurid pictures of medical students wielding scalpels over some child's pet strapped to an operating table. Researchers are pictured as "sadistic monsters" inflicting pain on pink-eyed rabbits.
In spite of the care given the animals and the impressive list of drugs developed through animal experimentation, anti-vivisectionists continue to introduce bills in state legislatures to stop their use.
Anti-vivisectionists are often women who storm before legislative hearings in mink coats (for which dozens of extra minks were mutilated) to champion the cause of the rabbits that led to the discovery of insulin. One of the favorite pieces of literature is a picture of a physician waving a bloody hatchet over a cowering dog.
Use Out-of-town Strays
Nothing could be further from the truth. All animals used by the University come from out of town, and are bought through a dealer authorized to collect strays. Other animals, such as rabbits and rats, are raised for research purposes.
When the dogs arrive at the animal house they are often thin and have the typical gaunt stray dog look. At the house they are fed balanced dog rations and by the time they are sent up to Haworth hall, most of them have gained weight.
