Dogs and cats: breeding for sale.

Abstract

Existing law proscribes specified acts against animals and imposes criminal penalties for a violation. This bill would make it a misdemeanor for any person to have more than a combined total of 50 adult unsterilized dogs and cats, in the state, for breeding or raising them for sale as pets, as specified. The bill would also prohibit a business entity, as defined, from having more than a combined total of 50 adult unsterilized dogs and cats, in the state, for breeding or raising them for sale as pets, as specified. The bill would make it a misdemeanor to act in concert with another person or to voluntarily assist a business entity in violating these provisions. The bill would authorize certain officers to lawfully take possession of an animal kept in violation of those provisions, as specified. Because this bill would create a new crime, it would impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
