I had to think long & hard on this one. it would eliminate puppy mills. it would give shelter pets a better shot at adoption. I have seen many people breed a cat or dog so their kids can "see birth" -- then the offspring are abandoned. So I guess I would support this action for now.

I heard an earful from my vet about this who is a responsible Whippet Breeder and there from my understanding is no place for people like her, who are responsible about breeding, in the bill. She actually went to Sacramento to lobby against this. She had some interesting ideas about fineing breeders if their pets are stray because a responsible breeder would take back their animals at any point in their lives. So after hearing my vet's take on it, I'm kinda on the fence.
