About this Event
Join us in the gardens out behind the Ivy Bookshop for a dog-themed happy hour ("yappy hour"!) and conversation with Melanie D. G. Kaplan, author of Lab Dog: A Beagle and His Human Investigate the Surprising World of Animal Research.
Bring your pup or make a new furry friend as we learn together about the breeding and use of beagles for biomedical research, drug and product testing, and education-- and how to envision a brighter future for them all.
Order LAB DOG here!
