I looked it over just briefly & basically it looks like a good intentioned law, though how it would be administered is the key, I guess. I'm sure a person is not going to get a fine or whatever for a temporary situation where the dog stays crated 14 hrs or longer if they are taken to the hospital in a coma or something. It is probably going to be used for those people that buy dog, enjoy them a while & then stick them in a crate or outside tethered or in the fenced yard forever & the dog lives like a lab rat or basic farm animal. The way many people treat dogs this day & time, stronger laws of some kinds have to be made.
