Dear Sen/Rep Name:
I
strongly support a strong, enforceable bill that will license, inspect, and
regulate pet breeding facilities in Wisconsin. ALL pet species should be given
protection, NOT just dogs. I would very much like to see such a bill
reintroduced in the next session of the state legislature.
With
the passage of such a bill, Wisconsin might finally start catching up to other
states in our ability to regulate breeding, boarding, pet dealer and kennel
operations. For too long our state has been the recipient of 'bad actors' from
other states that have passed similar legislation. These people come to
Wisconsin and set up shop because they know that we don't have the laws
necessary to enforce even minimum standards. It has already been proven that
many of them don't pay sales tax or correctly report income tax. That hurts all
of us.
A Pet
Facilities Bill is NOT an animal rights group bill. A Pet Facilities Bill is
about a variety of things including consumer protection, leveling the playing
field for responsible small business owners, and yes, humane treatment of
companion animals. I hope I can count on you to do the right thing for
Wisconsin consumers, business owners and pets.
Please
help Wisconsin achieve a comprehensive Pet Facilities Bill.
Sincerely,
Your Name
