Science really, really hates beagles for some reason.
The National Institutes of Health has tested an experimental treatment for cocaine addicts by injecting the drug into beagle puppies.
The “coke hounds” were revealed by the White Coat Waste Project, which discovered details of the $2 million taxpayer-funded experiment lurking in documents disclosed under an open-records request that the group filed.
Six-month-old beagle puppies were outfitted with jackets that injected them with drugs, along with an experimental drug that was fed to them. The dogs were “dosed with cocaine again and again and again for months,” the Waste Project said in its write-up of the experiment.
Researchers filmed the dogs to try to spot any signs of adverse reactions between the drugs. They also operated on the dogs to have a “telemetry unit” implanted to monitor their vital signs.
The dogs were either euthanized or “recycled” for other experiments at the end of the cocaine tests, the Waste Project said.
“Taxpayers should not be forced to foot the multimillion-dollar bill for wasteful and cruel ‘Coke Hound’ experiments in which beagle puppies are injected with cocaine just to fulfill burdensome and outdated FDA red tape,” said Devin Murphy, communications manager at the Waste Project, which works to stop taxpayer-funded research on animals.
The group said the experiment was conducted twice, once from November 2020 to April 2021 and again from May to September last year.
SRI International, a California-based research firm, led the experiment. The company did not respond to multiple requests for comment.
The National Institute on Drug Abuse, part of NIH, which funded the research, said the goal is to find treatments for cocaine disorder.
Although opioids get the most attention, the institute said, nearly 20,000 of the overdose deaths in 2020 involved cocaine. The Food and Drug Administration has not approved any treatment for stimulus disorders, and the experiments are part of an attempt to close that gap.
“Through this particular NIDA contract, researchers performed toxicology studies in a preclinical model to test the safety of a novel drug for the treatment of cocaine use disorder before moving it into a human study. This is done for the sole purpose of ensuring that a new medication will be safe in people who are seeking treatment for cocaine use disorder, and who may resume cocaine use while in treatment,” the institute said.
The folks at the White Coat Waste Project said there are alternatives to using dogs for testing to get FDA approval, but “institutional inertia” means researchers continue to reach for puppies when they don’t have to.
White Coat says most drugs tested on animals are denied approval anyway.
Advocates for animal testing say it’s an important part of the research chain and weed out many drugs, making eventual trials on humans safer.
NIH polices animal testing conducted under its auspices and says it tries to reduce the need to use them.
Applications that propose using animals face a “rigorous review process,” NIDA said.

On days they were dosed, the beagles were isolated, forced to fast — but allowed water — and given the cocaine-injection jackets for testing. They were returned to their normal quarters, up to three dogs in the same space, after the jackets were removed.
When not being tested, the animals were given chew toys and “regular opportunity for exercise and socialization” and had regular human contact, the research proposal said.
During one of the tests, each dog was put through nine dosing episodes, six of them involving cocaine injections. The other test had 13 dosings, with six involving cocaine.
Researchers said the experiment was expected to be “non-terminal” — in other words, the dogs were to survive.
Charles River Laboratories, which maintains a “dog colony” for testing and had the equipment for the experiments, could use the beagles for further research or euthanize them with an injection of sodium pentobarbital. The radiotelemetry devices that had been implanted could then be “recovered” from the bodies, the proposal said.

That experiment was funded by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease, run by Dr. Anthony Fauci.
Frankly, our children would have been better off if Anthony Fauci had locked them in cages and injected them with cocaine.
We’d probably have lower suicide rates among teenagers than what has resulted from Fauci’s human experiment of child masks and Zoom schools. Also, cocaine is a lot safer than the vaccines that Fauci is now moving to inject into infants.
Furthermore: unlike the vaccine, cocaine actually works.
As long as that shit isn’t cut with fentanyl by some Somalian gang, cocaine is going to really up your spirits. Comparatively, according to the inventor of the coronavirus vaccines Fauci is injecting into children and babies, they don’t do anything.
Imagine if the inventor of cocaine came out and was like “we’ve found in our studies that this shit doesn’t even get you fucked up,” but then drug dealers continued to force people to snort it.
