What they also aren't telling you, is all exemptions are only until Jan. of 2009. As of that date, your dog will have to be spayed/neutered regardless if any exemptions you may have.... So no more show dogs or legitmate purebred breeders will be allowed in CA. This puts the foot in the door for more breed-ban legislation. Some states are already trying to slip that in..... and it's not just bully breeds........ Labs, Retrievers, Spaniels, PUGS have even made it to some breed ban lists!!!!! Irresponsible breeding p*sses me off more than anything........ but bills like this are giving the Government the power to decide if we can have pets or not! -- Piggy's Pad

In reply to: V~ 's message, "I also don't agree with the 4 month age limit on spaying/neutering. With my beloved giant breeds, it's been medically proven that early neutering has led to bone cancer. Giant breeds NEED the hormones to regulate their growth plates. If neutered too young.... which most studies are saying is any time under a year of age... the growth plates don't close properly and is causing bone cancer. Since it's not always possible to find a vet familiar with the needs of giant breeds, it would be hard to get them to write you a letter exempting your pup from spay/neuter till a year. There are just so many other things wrong with this bill....... :(" on 8:46:39 pm, Wed, 06/27/07
