To Disrupt Backyard Breeders And Puppy Mills: Take The Profits Away!

What’s  the difference between puptax.com and every other failed regulation? It’s enforceable!

It prevents websites like Craigslist and Facebook from accepting improper “pets for sale” ads 

There are an estimated 15 million annual Craigslist, Facebook, internet and print advertisements of animals for sale**.

Without advertising, Backyard Breeders and Puppy Mills can’t profit or survive.

The proposed “pet’s for sale” advertising tax requires a paid tax with thorough revealing registration prior to any website or publication accepting a “pet for sale” ad.

With substantial fines and penalties for accepting untaxed and unregistered ads compliance is certain.

Registration requires full disclosure, photo identification, veterinary references, verifiable source and location of animals for sale. 

In addition: registration requires granting full permission for inspections by animal control, zoning or law enforcement.

Why would any backyard breeder or scammer comply?

The answer is they wouldn’t! That’s OK!

With no tax and registration, there are no ads.
No ads = no sales.
No sales = no profits.
No profits = the reduction or elimination of backyard breeding.

**Regulating all animals for sale ads with the exception of sites like Petfinder, Adopt-a-Pet, qualified municipal shelters and non profit rescue groups.

This petition is only the first step in implementing this law, the next step is to work with lawmakers.
