I might not be able to go to a breeder who would use a Currier to deliver a pup this affectsa lot of not only reputable breeders but buyers like me with a geographic issue in adopting |
It really doesn't say that, those sites that are backed by commercial breeders say it says that, but it doesn't. Don't forget one of the fastest growing scams are breeders who run rescues. They are free to sell their sickly dogs with no strings attached and no lemon laws to help consumers. Legitimate rescues won't be affected.

Q. How would this proposal affect rescue groups
that participate in off-site adoption events?
A. As mentioned above, persons who engage in
face-to-face transactions at a location other than their
premises, which include off-site adoption events,
are subject to some degree of public oversight and
therefore are not the focus of this proposed rule and
would not need to obtain a license.

As long as the rescue conducts some type of face to face transaction, they are exempt. Also, the humane society and shelters are exempt.

Q. What does this mean for State, county, or city
owned and operated pounds and shelters, as well
as humane societies and other organizations that
contract with those jurisdictions?
A. This proposed rule would have no effect on State,
county, or city owned and operated pounds and
shelters, or humane societies and other organizations
that contract with those jurisdictions. These public
agencies are exempt from regulation under the AWA.
