Here is an excerpt from the official website for The California Healthy Pet Act.
This past February, Assembly Bill 1634, the California Healthy Pets Act, was introduced to address this horrific problem by promoting responsible pet ownership in California by requiring most dog and cat owners to spay or neuter their pet by the age of six months.
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 an excerpt from an article in the Sun Sentinel regarding the proposed law in Palm Beach.
The proposed policy would require that all dogs and cats be sterilized unless there's documented medical reason for the pet not to be sterilized, that it's a proven show dog or cat, or that it's the property of a county-permitted animal breeder.
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.
