What if a person has a rare breed? A breed that isn't AKC registered? Take a look at the Rarities list of breeds. I would have sworn a number of them were made up names, but they are real breeds with real pedigrees. I seriously doubt that AC is going to try to figure out what registries are real and which ones are not so real (ie the difference between CKC and the CKC). As any government paperpusher will tell you, it is whatever they decide and if you don't fit into their narrow little box, you are out of luck.
This bill removes some very basic freedoms that as Americans, I would hope that we all hold dear. Being able to own the breed of dog that best suits us and be able to determine their destiny without interferance from the uneducated government officials.
Frankly I am glad I don't live there. I am very much afraid of AB1634. My dogs would no doubt be able to qualify for the so-called exemptions, but I don't care that *I* would be "safe" and to he** with the rest of the world and their dogs. It is none of the government's business to know what kind of dogs I have and what their reproductive status is. Should I breed my bitch, Iwould be required to inform the government who my customers are and where they live. I am not selling WMD, I am selling dogs.
You have read the studies that show that spaying and neutering at such a young age is not always in the best interest of the dog's long term health. If you read the bill closely you will see that what the vet has to decide is if the dog can survive the actual procedure, ie being put under and cut into. Not that they will have a higher rate of contracting a cancer some years down the road. If your dog doesn't have SAS, vWD or other serious conditions will not qualify for that exemption.
This is a serious intrusion into my right to privacy. My right to be free from unreasonable searches and seizures. My right to be safe in my person and papers. This is against my right of due process and certainly against being treated equal. This bill will make some dogs more equal then others.
