Description
Breeding dogs for certain research prohibited. Prohibits for two years a person who has received a particular citation from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) on or after July 1, 2023, from breeding or raising a dog for the purpose of selling or transferring the dog, or its offspring, to an animal research facility outside of the United States, or to an animal research facility located in the United States that will use the dog for testing or research not required by federal law or regulation. The bill allows a person who has received such a USDA citation to offer a dog or cat in his possession for release or adoption in certain circumstances.
