The occurrence of animals that end up in the shelter is the purpose of a multi-judged regulation adopted on Tuesday by the Clark County Commission, says Jim Anderson of the Dierenendienst.

The Animal Foundation, the government financed by the government, is constantly overflowing. We try to find ways to keep (animal) out of the hiding place and give them back to their owners before they ever have to go in there, “Anderson told the provincial commissioners.

The provincial effort, in the making since then last summer And under the leadership of Commissioner Michael Naft, the fine for selling an animal without a breeder permit from $ 100 to $ 500 increases, or the selling price that is offered for the animal, which could be thousands of dollars, depending on the breed. A second violation within two years bears a fine of $ 1,000 or double the selling price of the animal.

Dieractivists praised the move, but proposed the province or proposed to limit or place a moratorium in the issue of new breeding.

The Regulation prohibits the sale of animals in parking places, outdoor markets, Langsshuisstands and other locations without a permit.

It also requires that all cats and dogs older than four months are chipped. The province is planning to use income from breeding violations to subsidize microchipping and castration and non-sided services.

“I don’t want Micrachipping to be a barrier for people to get to apartment complexes, because that happened to the city (Van Las Vegas),” commissioner Marilyn Kirkpatrick told Anderson and encouraged him to inform apartment complexes that animal Owners there have months to meet the Microchip determination.

Kirkpatrick also suggested that people who experience homelessness receive free microchipping for their pets, so that the costs do not form a barrier. She also asked to report twice a year about how fines and other reimbursements are spent by the government.

The regulation also requires that every employee of a company or non -profit that works with animals attends a free course for animal handlers. It also requires that such a company reports the death of an animal within 12 hours. The company may not throw the body away until it is authorized and may be obliged to pay an autopsy.
