PLEASE NOTE:I will not place companion Dane puppies in State
mandated spay/neuter States.
In 2007, the people of California defeated AB1634, but similar legislation has
been proposed for other US States. Be aware and informed about the realities of this type of legislation.
I do believe in, and have always strictly enforced, the spay/neuter of companion puppies by contract.However, many of these
proposals, including AB1634 call for spay/neuter of every pet at 4-6 months of age which is inappropriate and detrimental to
proper growth and development of most
breeds, but infinitely more so for giant breeds, which have longer growth/maturity cycle given their size. Proper and natural growth is essential to developing the necessary and balanced skeletal structure to support a long and healthy life.Please contact your assembly and senate representatives to express your opposition to this type of legislation should it be proposed in your State.
