Dog March at UCSF Mission Bay Campus, Sunday, April 10th, 2005

When: Sunday, April 10th, 2005 at 10:45 A.M. Rain or shine. The gathering and the march will last about an hour.

Where: Corner of 16th Street and Owens Street, at the Mission Bay Campus

Parking: From 16th Street, turn into the unnamed street between Owens and 3rd Street. (3rd Street intersects with 16th Street on the east end.) The parking lot is free on Sunday.


The Mission Bay Campus is on the east side of San Francisco, not far from the bay. This is a newly-built branch campus. It is more spacious than the older campus. However, it is likely that the dog experiments, and countless other cruel and unnecessary experiments on monkeys, cats, pigs, sheep, rabbits, mice, hamsters, etc., are still being done at the old main campus. At any rate, we do know that experiments on smaller animals such as mice and rats, or hamsters and guinea pigs, are happening at the new Mission Bay Campus. It has been said that one of the new buildings there will house more monkeys. The buildings are humongous, especially the UCSF Genentech Hall.

It would be ideal to have as many well-behaved dogs there as possible, but if you don't have dogs please come, too! There will be snacks and drinks and water for people and pooches. J Sunday is chosen because too many people can’t make it on a weekday, and we need to tell the media that they can expect 100 pooches and people to be there.

Please mark your calendars. Please kindly email or call me if you can make it this day: noanimalexperiment [at] yahoo.com, so we can have a minimum confirmed count to promise the media.
