                                BILL NUMBER:S6093

TITLE OF BILL:
An act
to amend the general business law, in relation to dogs and cats unfit
for purchase due to illness, a congenital malformation, or symptoms of a
contagious or infectious disease

PURPOSE:
This legislation will protect consumers and their pets from the sale
of "Puppy Mills."

SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:
Section One - amends Section 1. Subdivision 1 of section 753 of the
general business law to state six months following the sale of an
animal subject to this article or receipt of the written notice
required by a veterinarian of the consumer's choosing, licensed by a
state certifies an animal to be unfit for purchase due to illness, a
congenital malformation which adversely affects the health of the
animal, or the presence of symptoms of a contagious or injections
disease the pet dealer will be responsible to either one of the
following:

A.) The right to return the animal and receive a refund of the
purchase price including sales tax and reasonable veterinary costs
directly related to the veterinarian's certification that the animal

is unfit for purchase and the veterinarian's treatment of the animal
for the conditionals that makes the animal unfit for purchase.

B.) The right to return the animal and receive an exchange animal of
the consumer's choice of equivalent value and reasonable veterinary
costs directly related to the veterinarian's certification that the
animal is unfit for purchase and for such veterinarian's treatment of
the animal for the condition that makes the animal unfit for purchase.

The costs of treatment for the animal's illness will be covered during
the lifetime of the animal.

JUSTIFICATION:
Puppy mills are large-scale commercial breeding facilities that sell
primarily to retail pet shops or individual consumers where dogs are
bred solely for profit, with no concern for their physical health or
psychological well-being. Most animals in these facilities are
disease-ridden and forcebred continuously.

The animals produced at puppy mills are often sold on the internet, in
newspaper ads, through brokers, or through pet stores. Puppy mills
are not covered under the 1966 federal Animal Welfare Act (AWA) and
many of these facilities do not meet those minimal standards for
animal care. At these puppy mills, animals receive minimal veterinary
care, poor quality of food and water, lack of human interaction and
overcrowded cages. In the worst puppy mills, after reaching a certain
age, unwanted animals are euthanized.

For consumers who buy puppies or kittens farmed at pet mills, they
sometimes find that the animal has health problems caused from over


breeding and their pet dies within the first year of purchase. Those
pets that survive from these health issues can have conditions that
require numerous veterinary bills and/or have genetic problems that
may not arise until many years later.
These health conditions can bring emotional and financial burdens onto
the pet owner, which may ultimately cause the pet to be given to a
shelter or, worse, euthanized.

LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:
This is a new bill.

FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
None to State.

EFFECTIVE DATE:
This law will take effect on the thirtieth day after becoming law.
