I'm not in total agreement with the age that they decided to have this done - 4 months of age - I would have rather seen this more like 6-7 months old so that there's time to let the baby teeth fall out or have them taken out at the same time of the surgery. But I guess you could get a Vet's note saying that you're going to wait for that. I understand people not wanting to be told what to do, however, there are some people who need to be told what to do. Yes, rules/laws are made in order to keep things under control. Without rules/laws we have chaos. My position on this law is - that if people had been responsible prior to this they wouldn't have needed to make this law. One thing I think they left out of this law is - that any breeding facility should have a maximum number that they can have breeding and/or in their facility. They really need to hit the puppymillers and hoarders. |
It's not about being told what to do. laws are needed but not when they infringe on your constitutional rights. And this kind of law does just that.
Maybe you should read them some time. The right to our property, dogs/animals, are indeed property by LAW.
