Georgia Legislation
H 1194 Protects Pet Shop Animals
Bill Description: If passed, this bill would ban the sale of dogs or cats less than 8 weeks old. In addition, 8 weeks would be the minimum age for importing dogs or cats into the state. The legislation also provides remedies for those who purchase a dog or cat from a pet dealer only to find that the animal has an illness, disease or hereditary disorder. Finally, pet dealers are required to state in writing the animal’s date of birth and the name and address of the breeder/broker at the time of sale.
