She raises puppies in her home and gives them wonderful care. She exposes them to the normal activities of a home and community, including getting them accustomed to meeting strangers and children. Good home breeders are nothing like puppy mills.

So glad to hear of this humane act... hopefully, other states will follow California's lead. InAbLuEsTaTe Dec 2018 #1

This is a great first step. Now I'm sure more states will follow suit. nt UniteFightBack Dec 2018 #24
What's the next step? Ban the breeding of all pets? n/t pnwmom Dec 2018 #29

I think breeding in CA is already licensed and regulated. n/t pnwmom Dec 2018 #32
