BILL NUMBER: S1130 SPONSOR: GIANARIS TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the agriculture and markets law and the general business law, in relation to the sale of dogs, cats and rabbits PURPOSE: SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: Section 1 amends subdivision 48 of section 16 of the agriculture and markets law to provide training materials in accordance with the other sections of this act Section 2 amends subdivision 4 of section 400 of the agriculture and markets law, adding a new paragraph (d) to include retail pet shops as defined in subdivision 8 of section 752 of the general business law Section 3 amends paragraphs (e) and (f) of subdivision 4 of section 408
of the agriculture and markets law, and adds a new paragraph (g) to allow the department to deny the registration of a non-profit if the entity was previously licensed as a pet dealer Section 4 amends the opening paragraph of subdivision 3 of section 752 of the general business law, and a new paragraph (d) is added to clarify that retail pet shops are not considered pet dealers Section 5 amends section 752 of the general business law, adding a new subdivision 8 to define "retail pet shop" Section 6 amends the general business law, adding a new section 753-f to prohibit the sale of dogs, cats and rabbits Section 7 sets the effective date EXISTING LAW: JUSTIFICATION: At a time where there are healthy and loving pets waiting to be adopted from animal shelters statewide, there is simply no reason to allow the sale of puppy mill animals. Puppy mill animals are mistreated from birth, and often develop behavioral or physical health problems later in life despite their high price tags. This bill would encourage the adoption of dogs, cats and rabbits and ensure that animals no longer have to face the cruelty, physical and psychological abuse-to which the puppy mill supply chain subjects animals. LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: 2020: Passed Senate/Died in Agriculture (Assembly) 2019: Died in Domestic Animal Welfare/Died in Agriculture (Assembly) FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: None LOCAL FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: EFFECTIVE DATE: One year after it shall have become law
