Wouldn't hurt for some of us to write or e-mail the right people and THANK them 
for the voice of reason!
Hope those in Montana do and let us know if we can.......

  Rep. Russell Bean Addresses Puppy Mill Legislation
  Contributed by Representative Russell Bean, Augusta



  The problem of puppy mills is one that Montana needs to address.  The bad
  apples of dog-breeding facilities can be unsanitary, unsafe, and downright
  cruel.  You don?t have to be an animal lover to see the need for some
  action.



  But House bill 548 was not the right solution. We voted it down today in the
  House Agriculture Committee.



  This bill did not define puppy mills.  Any ordinary private citizen who
  liked to
  breed purebred dogs as a hobby would have their home open to unannounced
  government inspections at any time. People would have new forms to fill out,
  more records to keep, and registration fees to pay.



  Those are good things to impose on greedy, inhumane dog breeders.  But not
  on an average Montana family who just loves dogs and likes to breed them.
  The issue needs to be addressed by local government ? by people in the
  community, who know the difference between good citizens and inhuman
  people being cruel to dogs.  A one-size fits all top-down solution is only
  going
  to hurt the honest citizen enthusiasts.
