I posted a notice about this some time ago... the silence was deafening (except for one or two). I have given up on California. They apparently like their smuggled sick puppies from Mexico. And they also apparently like unvaccinated and unlicensed dogs, as that will be the outcome. This type of bs always results in FEWER dogs licensed.

For the first time in city history, dog owners will be required to have their pets spayed or neutered, thanks to a City Council decision Monday. San Bernardino is the first city in the county to adopt such a measure, city officials said. The decision has been met with enthusiasm from local animal-rights professionals. "This is a great step in the direction of dealing with the very serious problem of pet overpopulation in this community," said Jim Ruester, executive director of the Humane Society of San Bernardino Valley, a private nonprofit that will perform many of the required surgeries. "Overall, this is better for everyone." ************************************** AOL now offers free email to everyone.
