Subject: FELLOW DOG FANCIERS TAKE SERIOUS NOTE_part 1
We MUST work to stop these laws from being passed!
This is very close to being approved in Palm Beach County. Many
counties in Florida are looking at the same issues and moving in this
direction.
For those of you who have not had the opportunity to read the newest
Ordinance to be presented for its 1st Reading on January 15, I have
highlighted some of the items that will affect anyone who breeds 2
litters or 19 puppies in a year. Specifically, Part 6. Chapter 4, Section 28
of the Palm Beach County Code entitled Animal Care and Control Hearing Board is renumbered as Section 30and Section 28, entitled Pet Overpopulation Reform.
Any owners of unaltered animals (with a few exceptions, police dogs,
service animals, and dogs a vet deems too unhealthy to spay/neuter) will be
required to pay $75/per animal and provide a certified letter to Animal Care
and Control either stating that their animal is a show/competition animal
or that they promise not to breed their animal. Further in the
Ordianance though (Page 11, Lines 20-27), its states that you will not be issued an unaltered license tag until you sign "a written statement certifying
that the dog or cat will not be used for breeding or stud purposes unless
an appropriate permit is first obtained from the Division." So
apparently, if you own a show/competition animal you don't plan to breed you will still have to get a hobby kennel permit.
Subject: Dog Fanciers Part 2
All fees will apparently be determined at some later date once this
Ordinance has been passed. That should be exciting since they have
many planned. There will be fees for license tags, late fees for failure
to timely renew, fines for failure to comply, application fees,
reapplication fee. It is doubtful that they will ever end since we seem to be their new cash cow.
If you breed any puppies or kittens without the proper permit, those
puppies and kittens you just produced (at great cost, I am sure) will now be given over to Animal Care and Control.
You will be required to provide records all of the litters produced
and the vaccines given and any medical conditions on those litters.
Quarterly you will be required to provide the name, address and
telephone number of new owners located in Palm Beach County.
