Dogs

The West Hollywood City Council passed landmark legislation on Monday, February 1st, 2010 banning the sale of cats and dogs in pet stores unless from rescues and shelters. This law will prevent the sale of cats and dogs in West Hollywood from cruel puppy and kitten mills. The ordinance was passed unanimously by the City Council.

According to coverage by NBC Los Angeles, the ordinance stems from an investigation of a West Hollywood pet store, Elite Animals, by the Companion Animal Protection Society (CAPS) which uncovered evidence that the shop allegedly misled consumers by selling puppy mill dogs and broke federal law by importing animals for resale.

Social Compassion in Legislation reports that the West Hollywood City Council not only received emails from local and state supporters on its proposed legislation but also from groups and individuals across the country and even as far away as the United Kingdom. The legislation “could be the beginning of the end of puppy mills and it’s happening in West Hollywood, one of the most progressive cities on animal welfare issues,” Ed Buck, Director of Social Compassion in Legislation.

In passing the legislation, West Hollywood continues its leadership in passing progressive animal welfare legislation. The city was the first in the U.S. to ban cat de-clawing. Many other California cities followed suit last year with their own de-claw bans.

Speakers at the council meeting included Dr. Allan Drusys of Social Compassion in Legislation, Wayne Pacelle, president and CEO of The Humane Society of the United States, Dawn Armstrong, executive director of the Lake Tahoe Humane Society, Chris DeRose, founder and president of Last Chance for Animals, and Carole Raphael Davis of the Companion Animal Protection Society.

A statement read by Norma Sandler for Bill Dyer of In Defense of Animals, who was unable to attend stated that “This unprecedented, historic action, in this Guardian city where the de-clawing of cats is also banned, will send a signal throughout our country for others to follow. West Hollywood will always be remembered as the city that had the foresight and compassion to first end the horrible commerce of puppy mills in our society.”

‘Sky’ Female GSD X -Very friendly, gave her paw and was happy to be brushed and stroked. She likes treats and toys, and is a bit giddy over them.

‘Storm’ GSD Male X-Very friendly, gave kisses through the kennel bars, he laid down for a belly rub and seemed to enjoy being brushed. He was presented with a toy, but was less interested, wanting to be fussed instead. Like the female, did not appear guarding with food. He could be coaxed both to sit and lie down.

Do google image search for the breed of dog you want and you will get better quality pictures. Puppyfind sellers are not very good at taking pictures.

The best places to get a dog for an afordable price is your local rescue groups and Humane Society. Just go online and look up dog rescue groups for your City, State. The prices can range from $80 to $200 or more. Usually they are higher if you go to a particular breed rescue group. I bought all my dogs from rescue groups. My first, Alexis I bought for $80, fixed, shots, and paid $20 for microchipping. My second I paid $85 that included fixing, shits and microchipping, the third cost $100, but he was my neighbor’s, she had to get rid of him last minute cause her husband is beginning chemotherapy and couldn’t keep him per doc’s orders. SO I rescued him from the Humane Society of El Paso, but that price would include fix, shots and microchipping. My husband and I were gonna go to Rhodesian Ridgeback Rescue of US, and pay $250 for a Rhodesian Ridgeback.

Again, Rescue Groups and Humane Societies are the best because you get a dog that’s fixed, shots, microchipped for one great affordable price, and they’ve all been psyco analyzed to make sure they don’t have any violent tendancies.

Good Luck
