Personally, I can't imagine it would be any different in FL or anywhere else. What they are trying to avoid is accidental breeding by irresponsible pet owners.
I agree. There is something that needs to be done. There are too many irresponsible people and the waste of a life is not worth it.

Here is the article Palm Beach County commissioners favor pet sterilization policy -- South Florida Sun-Sentinel.com
Thank you for posting the article to clarify the situation.

Since I started the thread, I think I should list all what I learned. The following link is the actually document . I guess that spaying/neutering all dogs/cats including show dogs was one of the options that are being discussed. I now understand why my friend, a breeder, was so concerned about the regulation.
