Retail dog, cat, rabbit sales banned in San Diego

The San Diego, Calif., City Council voted unanimously to ban the retail sale of dogs, cats and rabbits in pet stores July 9. The bill was proposed by Councilwoman Lorie Zapf to prevent “puppy mills” from supplying to pet stores. The new law should take effect in about 30 days after a second reading by the council.

The amendment to the municipal code makes it “unlawful for any person to display, offer for sale, deliver, barter, auction, give away, transfer or sell any live dog, cat or rabbit in any pet shop, retail business or other commercial establishment located in the city of San Diego, unless the dog, cat or rabbit was obtained from a city or county animal shelter or animal control agency, a humane society or a nonprofit rescue organization.’’

The amendment will require pet stores to keep certificates that name the source of their animal inventory in order to make the information available to animal control officers, law enforcement, code compliance officials or other city employees. Pet stores may still contract with animal shelters, animal control agencies, humane societies or nonprofit organizations to sell dogs, cats and rabbits to consumers.

Several other California cities have adopted a similar ban. San Diego will be the second largest city in the nation with retail ban—Los Angeles is the largest.

  2. The above questions require very little skill - anyone could ask them. One could argue that there are reasons why a car wash attendant wouldn't ask for it (lack of sales training, poor leadership, no incentive...etc), but, as you can see, it doesn't require much.how to make sales calls

  3. Having said that, it's easy to avoid paying more than necessary for a product or service; all you need to do is a quick search to find out what prices are available elsewhere. You can then buy with the confidence that you are getting the best deal, or move on to another site.easy cold calling script
