Lights, camera, action! Happy Paws is gearing up for the release of more than 40 star-studded research beagles over the next several weeks. (Yes, it has increased from 11 to 40+!) These celebrity dogs, ranging from the studly Ryan Gosling to the debonaire George Clooney, will walk the red carpet from life in biomedical research facilities to loving forever homes beginning on December 19.

Happy Paws Rescue routinely takes in beagles when they can no longer be used at research facilities. To date, we’ve placed 97 of these dogs in loving homes! Learn more here.

Want to become a member of the celebrity research beagle fan club? Here’s how you can help:

• Adopt a beagle! Click here to submit an application. (Com’on, you know you want your very own Johnny Deep!) 

• Foster a beagle! We need foster families to take care of the beagles. Typical commitment time is one to three weeks. Learn more here. (Hugh Jackman promises to be a good house guest!) 

• Spread the word! Share this Petfinder profile about the beagles! (Go ahead, gossip about these handsome men, why don’t you?) 

• Sponsor a beagle!  We are seeking donors who can sponsor the beagles’ medical care. (Justin Timberlake needs to be neutered and Harrison Ford needs to be microchipped, after all!)
