We also have a playful lad who loves to snuggle and still acts like he is a year old- but in reality he is 6 also- his name is Bailey. And for those that prefer the younger ones, we have a handful of 6 month to 1 year olds who are still full of kitten There are so many wonderful cats here, if you fulfill just one resolution, make it the one about making a difference, it will make you feel so good inside!

Breed Specific Legislation select a link Tail docking of specific breeds is based upon to address the core issuesrelating to animal welfare. http://www.ankc.aust.com/tail docking.htm
Extractions: AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL KENNEL COUNCIL TAIL DOCKING PRESS RELEASE The Australian National Kennel Council [ANKC] totally opposes any move to ban the tail docking of some breeds of purebred dogs. Opponents of tail docking now claim that it is performed for cosmetic reasons because their previous claims such as 'cruelty' cannot be substantiated and fail in logic. The ANKC rejects the claim that tail docking is carried out for cosmetic reasons. Tail docking is a long established animal management practice based upon injury prevention and health enhancement. In the United Kingdom 64 practising and experienced veterinarians have publicly opposed any move to ban tail docking and a further 37 have committed to the opposition. They have done so due to their belief that docking does serve a useful purpose, that their experience has shown docked puppies experience no adverse effects, and that the opposition to docking is not based on science and considered reason.

Extractions: JUNE 20TH UPDATE: A hearing on this issue has been scheduled for June 25th at 1:00pm at Legislative Hall in Dover. Dog fanciers should attend. JUNE 19TH UPDATE: Rep. Terry Spence, Speaker of the House and sponsor of HB571, announced late yesterday that he will amend the bill to remove all breed-specific references. He will introduce today an amended version that does not include the blanket label of dangerous for pit bulls, Rottweilers, wolf-hybrids, and other breeds. The Speaker would like to see the bill come to a House vote Thursday (tomorrow, June 20th) or next week. The AKC and Delaware dog clubs will continue to closely monitor this issue. Interested dog owners in this state should remain vigilant to insure that effective, enforceable dangerous dog legislation is approved that will not unfairly penalize owners of certain breeds. AKC thanks Delaware dog owners for their quick attention to this issue!

Extractions: May 2, 2000 (Last update 4/26/00) LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA Following the Los Angeles City Council's passage in March of the ordinance to increase the costs for the unaltered dog license and breeder permit to $100, other related issues have appeared on Council agendas and the Animal Regulation Commission remains a window on animal control activity and sentiment. Reports on the April 24 Commission meeting were published online and are cause for further concern. The meeting, held at the Madrid Theater in Canoga Park, was part of the Commission's outreach plan, which sets one meeting each quarter in one of the six areas serviced by the department and was attended by approximately 50 Valley residents and at least a half-dozen department employees. ValleyPet reports Department of Animal Regulation General Manager Dan Knapp's new stated policy to increase euthanasia of dogs from South Central and North Central Shelters and move a temporary mobile shelter from East Valley to South Central to create additional holding space at South Central to minimize danger to employees and dogs from dog fights resulting from crowded conditions. As we have written before, Californians have enjoyed a decade of freedom from the breed specific laws as a result of the courageous efforts of our board member, Judith A. Brecka and others in successful trial court litigation that provided the leverage to achieve in the state dangerous dog law and a prohibition on any breed specific programs in the state. This provision is now contained in California Food And Agricultural Code Section 31683. "Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to prevent a city or county from adopting or enforcing its own program for the control of potentially dangerous or vicious dogs that may incorporate all, part, or none of this chapter, or that may punish a violation of this chapter as a misdemeanor or may impose a more restrictive program to control potentially dangerous or vicious dogs, provided that no program shall regulate these dogs in a manner that is specific as to breed."
