There is enought horrible parts to these amendments that we can scream loud and clear...however, as many was distracted by the 1/1/09 date, let's not distracted by this. It does NOT say that the dog must be altered. It just emphasizes that the permited to let your backyard male and your backyard female have one litter, you must give away your pups, and THAT permit is ONLY good for that year. Give away the pups? After spending, some times, thousand of dollars to have the litter (of your backyard dogs). this is what comes from compromise and negotiation!!! :-( phooey...blech. Thanks, you compromisers and negotiators. I will get a lot of physical work done today to get rid of my anger...probably the FIRST "ANGER" I have felt since I saw L.A County get compromised away. From then on, it was determination that kept me going. How on earth do they think they can go into every dog owner's house, count their breeding dogs (check the microchip, right? do DNA???), enforce any part of this stupid bill. Think of the MILLIONS it would cost to enforce this drunken bill. Do we put signs on our doors, now? A breeding pair lives here, come in and check it's water and food any time of day or night...C'mon DOWN>>>>>>> >>Maybe Barker in his senility thought up some of this?
