Summary
Pet dealers; diseased animals; veterinary certificate. Requires a pet dealer to reimburse certain veterinary fees when a consumer returns or retains a diseased dog or cat that has been certified by a veterinarian as being unfit for purchase. Current law requires the pet dealer to refund the purchase price or exchange the unfit pet for a pet of equivalent value. The bill extends the return or reimbursement period from 10 to 14 days in the case of an animal infected with parvovirus and eliminates the condition that the animal be described as pedigreed. The bill also requires a pet shop or licensed dealer to provide the identity of the breeder of each dog or cat for sale and incorporates information about the refund provision into the text of the required notice document. The bill requires certain dealers to record and post certain information about the breeder of each animal.
Title
Pet dealers; reimbursement of certain veterinary fees to consumer.
