Law Designed To Protect, Educate New Pet Owners

What a wonderful thing....

A state bill that requires pet stores and animal shelters to disclose the health history of a dog or cat has been signed into law.  Under the new law, pet shops, animal shelters and control facilities will also have to disclose other information.   That includes the name and address of the breeder, retail price, adoption fees and vaccinations, among other things.  Gov. Quinn signed the bill Sunday. He says the information will help protect consumers before they buy a pet.  The law goes into effect next year.
