The fight against California AB1634 is ongoing. Below is a summary of what the passage would mean to reputable breeders of purebred dogs. Kim Meredith-Cavanna is a well known breeder and judge who has written the best explanation I have seen on the ramifications of the passage of AB1634. Also below the summary is a list of California Senators. Please fax your opposition to this bill. You do not have to be a resident of California to fax opposition to this bill. <\/p>\n
Please, please donate money to the Concerned Dog Owners of California which is mentioned in the article. The website is www.cdoca.org <\/p>\n
From Kim Meredith-Cavanna:<\/p>\n
“You must read this bill in its entirety and its many amendments. It is vitally important that every Californian in the dog fancy read and understand this bill. If you do not live in California, you should read the bill and understand it, because its coming your way! <\/p>\n The general public is duped….. It appears there is an exemption when indeed there is none. There is an exemption for “breeders” until 2009 and then there are NONE. So that means after 2009, if you enter a dog show and your name and address is in the catalog, they can come to you and FINE you for $500. You will be breaking a law for owning an intact animal. Prior to 2009 you will pay a $500 (per animal) “exemption tax” to keep them “intact.” He has also recently added an amendment that you may now be “blessed” with having one litter per year. So if you are paying $1500 per year to keep three females intact, lucky you, you get to breed one of them! There are NO provisions for stud dogs, by the way. We all know that PETA and AR activists have created havoc at dog shows in the past. Just wait until this bill passes. Don’t be naive, it most likely will pass the Senate. What you need to understand is that the AR people and many of the general public see the legitimate breeders as “the bad guys”. We are evil in their eyes.<\/p>\n Are you going to enter your dogs in a show and have your name and address published? After 2009 you will not be owning any animal that is not spayed or neutered. It is not clear what will happen if animal control comes to your home and finds intact animals that you are not paying an “exemption tax” on….. It will be up to the local animal control offices to determine. Pretty scary thought. <\/p>\n PLEASE READ THIS BILL!!!! All of us need to educate ourselves. Write letters! Send faxes! Donate money to help us fight this. I am a member of COD www.cdoca.org <\/strong> and we have hired a full time lobbyist. CDOC is made up of “real” dog people. Exhibitors, judges, handlers, breeders. We need donations. If you can donate time, we have lots of jobs for you! Please do not think “some one else” will do it, because they will not. The threat of not having the AKC show held in Long Beach and loss of revenue is no longer an issue we can use as leverage. We have a lot of work ahead of us.”<\/em><\/p>\n AND THE LIST OF SENATORS TO FAX OR CALL: (FAXING IS BEST, EMAILS TOO EASILY DELETED)<\/p>\n Tom Harman<\/p>\n State Capitol, Room 2052 950 South Coast Dr., Ste 240 Tom Mc Clintock Sheila Kuehl<\/p>\n Capitol Office<\/p>\n State Capitol, Room 5108 10951 West Pico Blvd. 300 West Third Street Carole Migden State Capitol, Room 5114 Marin\/San Rafael District Office San Francisco District Office<\/p>\n 455 Golden Gate Ave Gloria Negrete McLeod<\/p>\n Capitol Office San Bernardino Office Montclair Office Jenny Oropeza State Capitol, Room 4074 District Office Alex Padilla State Capitol, Room 4032 District Office Don Perata<\/p>\n Capitol Office District Office Press Office Mark Ridley-Thomas State Capitol, Room 4061 Los Angeles Office<\/p>\n Administrative Offices East Bob Margett<\/p>\n State Capitol, Room 3082 2605 E.
