As most of you in California have probably heard AB1634 is back and Assemblyman Levine has his credibility on the line. He is trying to save face after his first proposed mandatory spay/neuter legislation was defeated last fall.

To add to the problem, today Los Angeles City Council just passed an ordinance that makes it mandatory that owners have all animals spayed/neutered at mos of age or face severe criminal penalties should they be caught. AB1634 supporters will try to use this example to win their case.

While I do agree that there is a HUGE problem with irresponsible owners and backyard breeders this is NOT the solution.

For those of you who think this is an isolated California problem think again. If this passes in CA, rest assured the winds of change will start sweeping to the rest of the country.
