Beagles (definite introduction)
Research on all diseases or drugs requires certain experimental subjects, which is inevitable. Even though this may be unfair to the animals used for experiments, certain death is necessary for the sake of more healthy designs of the same or non-similar species. Among experimental dogs, beagles are a very rare breed, so what are the advantages of this kind of dog in experiments?
First of all, the Beagle has certain advantages in terms of size. The dog is moderate in size, so it is relatively easy to control. Moreover, Beagles are relatively strong and have relatively good immunity among dogs, and they are not those breeds that are prone to disease. What's more important is the Beagle's character.

Naturally, it is not enough to be gentle, easy to tame and get close to people. The Beagle's own physique also has many advantages. The dog's genetic characteristics are safe. In order to obtain good reproducibility and safety in research work, the Beagle breed is fixed and excellent, and there are generally no hereditary neurological diseases.

The sexual maturity period is early, about 8 to 12 months, and the number of litters is large. Because the dog has a gentle personality, is easy to train, has few hereditary diseases, and has good test reproducibility, it is more suitable for research on pharmacology, cyclic psychology, ophthalmology, toxicology, surgery, etc., and is recognized by the international medical and biological circles as an ideal experimental animal. dog. At present, the annual consumption of this dog in the world is about 100,000.
It seems that in addition to having better character and compliance, beagles are also very suitable for experiments in many aspects. In addition to being an outstanding experimental dogIn addition, this dog is also a very good family dog. Many families also keep this kind of dog as a pet dog, and they can also play the role of a good pet very well. However, all dogs have certain flaws, and Beagles are no different.
In addition to character, Beagle's own physique is also relatively suitable for testing
