INTRODUCED BY   Assembly Member Maienschein

                        FEBRUARY 18, 2014

   An act to amend Section 122055 of the Health and Safety Code,
relating to public health.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 1809, as introduced, Maienschein. Dog breeders: records.
   Existing law, the Polanco-Lockyer Pet Breeder Warranty Act,
generally regulates purchases between dog breeders and consumers. The
act requires a dog breeder to maintain a written record on, among
other things, the health, status, and disposition of each dog for a
period of one year after disposition of the dog.
   This bill would make a technical, nonsubstantive change to those
record-keeping provisions.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  Section 122055 of the Health and Safety Code is amended
to read:
   122055.  A breeder shall maintain a written record on the health,
status, and disposition of each dog for a period of not less than
 one year   12 months  after disposition of
the dog. The record shall also include all of the information that
the breeder is required to disclose pursuant to Section 122050.
