A supremely nasty anti-dog breeder bill, SB 1492<\/a>, was recently introduced in Florida. There is nothing particularly new in this bill. It assumes that breeders are cruel, unethical, money-grubbers. It also labels dogs \u201cbreeding female\u201d on the assumption that the only reason someone wouldn\u2019t choose to spay their dog is because they intend to breed them. Further, it has no problem saying we need to spay dogs at six months old, despite the well-known health and behavioral consequences associated with spaying and neutering dogs while they are still puppies.<\/p>\n\n\n

Look who just turned six months old! Hope you registered your “breeding female!”<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Then there are the registration fees and warrantless home inspections that, as the Canine Chronicle points out, even convicted felons, rapists, and murderers are not required to submit to. Oh, and let\u2019s not forget the somewhat opaque conditions under which a dog can be seized, that \u201cbreeding facilities\u201d have to post their addresses online (opening them up to criminal activity and harassment), and, of course, that anyone who has a litter is now a \u201cbreeding facility.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s not everything, but you get the idea. It’s like the goal here was to make a greatest-hits compilation of every bad breeder bill ever proposed or passed. Feels like the early 2010s all over again \u2013 what a heinous mess! Ugh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyhow, as you have likely surmised, we strongly oppose Florida SB 1492, and NAIA Trust will be fighting against it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
