My girlfriend e-mailed me this to me.

Alza Corporation, a Johnson & Johnson Company, is closing their Mountain View, CA. facility.
The animal test facility has 40, 16 month old beagle puppies that need good loving homes. These dogs were NEVER tested.

They have about 40 Beagle Puppies to place in good homes. They are healthy and never been tested. If they can't place the puppies with owners before October 15th, they will have to euthanize them. I don't know if you are looking for puppies, but Beagles are great dogs and normally expensive to purchase. If you want one for FREE and want to save their life, contact the person below.

If you know of anyone, a rescue or are interested in helping give these puppies homes, please contact Rick Bible at: azoulaybible@hotmail.com


i just called the Alza Corporation and they said that the puppies are not for public adoption. sorry guys.

The facility manager will have to put them to sleep if no homes are found by OCTOBER 15TH!!

Thanks for your help!!!

 

i just called the Alza Corporation and they said that the puppies are not for public adoption. sorry guys.

 

so if they are not up for public adoption, what's going to happen to them?

 

oh never mind

 

Yeah WTF? Sounds like they really don't want them to go to "loving homes".

 

i got this email on my company email and i was wondering if it was true also.

 

they said that they will go to shelters or pet stores....but who really knows?

 

Did you contact Rick or did you call ALZA? I don't think Rick works at ALZA anymore, I tried his extension and the mobile phone but his extension no longer works and his mobile phone has been disconnected. I shot him an email asking if the puppies were indeed up for adoption. I'll let you guys know if I hear back.

 

call the number and say you saw an e-mail about the puppies. they will transfer you to a recording.

 

Yeah, I tried calling his extension here at work and it goes to main ALZA number. I think he has already been laid-off. I emailed him on the email provided. I'm just waiting to see if I get a response.

 

that is a shame about the dogs. actually, all alza employees have been laid off now and are in the 'job assistance' program paid by JnJ.

 

Yes all of them have been laid off but all of them are not leaving on the same day. The first bach have their last day of work tomorrow, October 5th. They are phasing out everyone but it's a controlled phase out. They still need people to help close out the facilities properly.

As for the dogs, I don't know if it's a hoax or not but my co-worker told me that all the dogs had already been adopted.

 

So the offical ALZA press release says they are not up for public adoption like Suby 6 STi said in the morning
