Are You a Responsible Dog Owner? This is a MUST Read
received the attached e-mail the other day. As a responsible dog owner in Massachusetts, I found this information to be very alarming. I urge all Massachusetts dog lovers to write to their local state representative or senator to let them know that this proposed legislation is harmful to owners who show, handle, breed and care for their dogs as they would their own children. Also, the message from the AKC about the need to control dangerous breeds has been distorted to include all breeds.
This is bad news for us all!
Read the message below:
“As a Massachusetts resident who has registered a dog with the American Kennel Club over the past five years, the AKC would like to notify you of Massachusetts House Bill 5092. Opposed by both the American Kennel Club and its Massachusetts federation, the Massachusetts Federation of Dog Clubs, HB 5092 is a conglomeration of many anti-dog, anti-responsible dog owner, and anti-responsible dog breeder proposals.
For specific information on HB 5092, please click here to view AKC’s post.
WHAT YOU CAN DO:
The AKC encourages all Massachusetts residents to contact their state representative and express their opposition to the draconian provisions of HB 5092. Furthermore, Massachusetts residents are encouraged to urge their representative to contact Representative Donato, Chairman of the House Steering, Policy, and Scheduling Committee, and respectfully request that he “send HB 5092 to study.”
For more information, contact AKC’s Government Relations Department at (919) 816-3720, or e-mail doglaw@akc.org.”
