NOTE: The purpose of this bill is to protect consumers against the purchase of sick or underage pets

geeeze, it looks to me like its purpose is to get puppy families and vets conspiring to make a few bucks off the breeders!

The stuff about puppies not leaving or being sold before 8wks is common sense - it's the law here in CO already.
