Yes, my son’s pure bred golden retriever has hip problems requiring surgery. The other is a pure black retriever/lab mix. Healthy as a clam. I guess if you breed purebreds long enough they tend to end up like Prince Charles.

There isn’t a problem on earth that can’t be made worse by liberal do-gooder meddling.

They’re already doing that on the sly. Surrender a purebred at a shelter - the shelter will not make it available to the public.

Too many laws Too many taxes

“All the extravagance and incompetence of our present Government is due, in the main, to lawyers, and, in part at least, to good ones. They are responsible for nine-tenths of the useless and vicious laws that now clutter the statute-books, and for all the evils that go with the vain attempt to enforce them. Every Federal judge is a lawyer. So are most Congressmen. Every invasion of the plain rights of the citizens has a lawyer behind it. ” —H.L. Mencken

Imagine if fertility clinics were outlawed to encourage adoption of human babies and abortion was prohibited to put an end to child killing?

As with the trannies in bathrooms bills, the Left will tell you now is not the time to challenge their agenda.

They push these measures when other more important things are happening and bitch back when you try to repeal their encroachment.

So will there be prohibitions on bringing pets in from other states?

Calling it a pet is promoting animal subjugation. It’s almost like slavery.

Next, they'll demand that Pet Stores actually sell living pets.

>>I’ve never quite got what exactly makes a dog a “rescue” dog

Found by the side of the road or stolen from a home where the do-gooder felt justified by saying that the owner wasn’t a good enough friend of their pet.

Sometimes it can be chains, sometimes it can be leaving the dog outside on a hot day.

Well turtles may outlive their owners. It’s a slow but sure rescue...

And doesn’t this make all puppy-mill dogs...rescue dogs? Why does Jerry Brown bother with the small stuff when his state is overwhelmed with trouble??? Oh, I forget, he’s progressive.

We are our own country california demands Pet Stores only to sell rescue dogs.

Same goes for the sanctuary cities they have...only cure is to cut off all Federal Funding. Wall Cali, Washington and Oregon off when the wall off Mexico.

Is this a proper function of government?
I think not.
Stupid California, again.

How many Petco & Petsmart stores will go under?

California proves again that it doesn’t want any businesses there.

How long will it take for these stores to be holding dogs that cannot be adopted due to their behavior & the many breeds which insurance companies won’t cover under your homeowner’s policies?

Rottweilers—Pit Bulls—Dobermans—etc. No coverage for anything those dogs do.

More SOCIAL ENGINEERING at every level from the California Legislature.

Wait until they tell us what kinds of Christmas Cookies we can bake at home,.......Inspections to follow.

This is awesome. I say this as someone who rescued thousands of dogs from LA and central California over a 5 yr period.

The only way to stop the cruelty of puppy mills is to put them out of business, and this is a good start.
