Dogs in medical research

This video shows typical housing conditions for dogs. There are multiple enclosures which allow isolation of single dogs, but which can be opened up for interaction. Because dogs are social animals, they are not singly housed for long periods unless necessary, most of the time the dogs will be housed in small groups. There is often a larger space within the animal house which is used for exercise and play with the ability to run around. The room in this video is similar to those found in other facilities, providing an area where the dogs can interact with each other in a sensory rich environment to satisfy their inquisitive nature. This video has no sound.
