The public objection to lethal testing on dogs specifically seems ethically inconsistent. If killing pigs for food is ethical, so is experimental surgery on dogs, assuming they are treated humanely. The article tries to frame this as an ethics issue, but it seems more like a puplic relations problem to me.
