Necessity of License.

I would love to be exempt!
Guess they had people trying the guard dog thing before..... too bad. I know some counties have restrictions about even having a kennel in a residential area. Now the question comes to mind .... have they actually defined kennel operator? If you have them in your home, can it still be considered a kennel?

I can see I will have to check in to this well before we consider breeding.
