      I mean, I’m pretty sure we’ve got enough research down at this point to make non-lethal dog food without testing to make sure, probably still a good idea to make sure Rex still wants a bowl before slapping it on the shelf, but I think we’re past the point of trying to market the Purina One Arsenic, Chocolate, and Grapes brand of kibble.

        “Animal testing” isn’t just “will this murder the dog”, it’s also “will these 50 random dogs actually eat the food?”

        Stuff that is marketed towards animals, obviously makes sense to be tested in them, as well as medicine for humans
