The Wisconsin Dog Breeders and Sellers Law takes effect on June 1,  
2011, by which time all breeders, rescues and facilities that fall  
under the law must be licensed.

Licenses are required for:

        • “Dog breeding facilities” from which at least 25 dogs/year are  
sold, from more than three litters
        • “In-state dog dealers” selling at least 25 dogs/year that they did  
not breed or raise
        • “Out-of-state dog dealers” who import at least 25 dogs/year into  
Wisconsin (this includes dogs that they have bred and raised) – this  
includes out-of-state rescues that place dogs in the state
        • Non-profit animal shelters and rescues that shelter/foster at least  
25 dogs/year
        • Animal control facilities that contract with a local municipality
