The definition of "dealer" applies to people in the regular course of BUSINESS....unless she's licensed or it can be proved this is a business...I doubt the statue is applicable.
The health certificate isn't even applicable in this case...it's sole purpose to to indicate the age appropriate vaccinations and the puppy isn't old enough. Also veterniary records can be substituted for a certificate.
I am not agreeing with releasing a puppy at 5 weeks...but not certain the statues posted even apply...the health certificate certainly does not.
