New York Legislators are using this bill to alter the definition of a pet 
dealer. 
There was just a bill introduced this year A9576 that would have changed pet 
dealer from 
selling 9 or more animals per year for profit or a breeder who sells 25 
or more born and raised on their property to OFFERING to sell as well as 
sell. Obviously people might offer or appear to offer more animals than 
they actually sell and I don't think that should count towards the 
licensing threshold. In addition the legislature has failed to provide 
funding so the mandatory inspections aren't even done. The current law 
and these additions will just create a new tax on pet dealers, breeders, 
groomers, and boarding kennel owners. The costs will filter down to the 
consumer and heck boarding costs are already too high for me. These 
bills will also require a number of vaccinations for your dog and cat 
before they are allowed to be boarded and require the boarding kennel 
owner to keep on record for two yrs all the info about you, name, 
address, length of stay, vaccinations, etc.
It can be voted on in the senate at any time so letters are needed ASAP. 
Also we should be writing to the assembly committee opposing it. The
