The American Kennel Club (AKC) is pleased to report that an amended version of
House Bill 1818 was passed by the Texas Senate yesterday, May 25, 2021.
AKC and other allied animal interest groups support HB 1818 as amended by the
Senate. As previously reported, Committee Substitute HB 1818 permits pet
stores to source dogs and cats from certain licensed commercial breeders in
addition to animal control agencies, animal shelters, and animal rescue
organizations; and imposes additional reasonable quality requirements on pet
stores.
The 2021 Texas legislative session will adjourn on Monday, May 31. With only a
few working days remaining, the amended bill will be returned to the House for
its concurrence in the Senate’s amendments or for the appointment of a
conference committee to hammer out the differences between the versions of the
bill passed by each chamber.
AKC Government Relations will continue to provide updates on developments from
Austin as they warrant. For more information, email doglaw@xxxxxxx.
