30 dogs is enough to have a good breeding program, but that is not really the point. In Illinois they want the maximum to be 20. It is the rights that are being taken away. We start with something like this, supposedly to shut down puppy mills, and then we end up like California with mandatory spay and nueter, no tail docking, or ear cropping, Where does it end? What are we willing to let the government control?
This is supposed to be about puppy mills, This will not stop them. It will make them go further underground. You can put 100 dogs stacked in cages in a basement, meet people at the circle K, and run ads with a prepaid cell phones. Since puppy mills don't register their dogs with the akc, or anyother so called registries, who will control them? Will this bill stop them? The Answer is NO...
It is a violation of civil liberties, that will only affect the people following the rules...
