The problem, as I see it, is this paragraph:
"The proposed ordinance would ban all stores from auctioning, selling, bartering, giving away or delivering dogs and cats. Those who breed animals would not be affected by the proposal. It would also allow individuals who are purchasing a pet to visit the breeding site and see the conditions in which the animals are being raised."
How is that going to curb the puppy mills? The breeders aren't going to be affected by the proposal.
Many of them advertise on the net and will ship their dogs anywhere.
