In Your Opinion, Eliminating 15 Million Backyard Breeder Ads Could Generate How Many Lifesaving Shelter And Rescue Pet Adoptions?

Backyard Breeder ads (Craigslist and many others) are costing shelter dogs their lives.

This is a Backyard Breeder Epidemic and it’s getting progressively worse!

Here’s The Fix:

Animal Shelters and Rescues overflowing with adoptable pets are forced to compete with Backyard Breeders that don’t comply with regulations. 

Despite so called “rules” (unenforced) prohibiting the selling of animals on Craigslist and other sites, annual estimates of 15 million “pets for sale” ads are published nationally on hundreds of websites.   

Insufficient pressure on Facebook, Craigslist and other sites allow Backyard Breeders, Puppy Flippers, Mills and Scammers go unchecked. Existing regulations are impossible to enforce.

While many animal welfare organizations support the end of Backyard Breeder ads, they have been largely ignored. 

In the past Legal and Public pressure on Craigslist, Backpage and others have forced them to cancel their “erotic” and “adult” services sections. Stopping all “pets for sale” is long overdue.

This proposed law is designed to hold backyard breeders and those that enable them accountable. 

It’s a tax on all pets for sale advertisements with complete and transparent registration.

Would Backyard Breeders pay taxes and complete comprehensive  registration , providing Identification, Location, Vaccinations and Health information?

Very simply: THEY WILL NOT! 

That’s 100% to be expected!

No Tax=No Ad,

No Registration=No Ad,

No Ads=No Sales,

No Sales=No Profits and 

No Breeding…

Websites or Publications would be prevented from accepting ads without Paid Tax and Registration and (checkable) Permits. 

Large civil penalties will discourage Websites and Publications from accepting untaxed and un permitted ads. 

This petition is only the first step in implementing the law. Please show your support, 

We roll out our proposals to lawmakers next.
