You can read the Bill for yourself. This will affect all breeders having 5 puppies a year. Not five litters, FIVE PUPPIES. Existing government legislation already covers ILLEGAL AND INHUMANE TREATMENT such as puppy mills, now they want to be over responsible breeders too. This bill has an hidden agenda. This bill is meant to affect responsible breeders and law abiding citizens. This bill will just force the illegal puppy mills further underground. If irradication of "puppy mills" is the goal then enforcement of the laws and statutes already in place would take care of that.
