Specifics of space, feed, and bedding can be modified to fit nearly any protocol.
In 2008, ETCR completed construction of a 5,000 sq. ft. small animal facility with simultaneous capacity for 96 dogs and ~60 cats housed in groups, pairs, or individually.
Consistent with the Animal Welfare Act, small animal studies are reviewed by ETCR’s IACUC prior to implementation.
ETCR works closely with local shelters to find forever homes for adoptable dogs and cats after they had completed studies.
