PETA is using this as a stepping stone to eliminate all pets.
http://www.saveourdogs.net/ Save Our Dogs is a grassroots effort to save working dogs from AB 1634, the mandatory spay/neuter bill. We strongly support their efforts and their goal and hope you will join with us to prevent this bill from passing.
The real problem in California animal shelters is not too many puppies. It is too many adult dogs who are abandoned. Mandatory spay/neuter won't make owners take responsibility for their dogs, so where is the benefit?
Mandatory s/n doesn't work, hurts working dogs and small consciencious breeders - and PETA will use it as a stepping stone to eliminate all pets. Not to mention that spay/neuter at only 4 months old - required by this bill - has serious health consequences for puppies.
Also, to produce useful working dogs, breeders must selectively breed dogs with the best demonstrated working abilities that are generally not apparent until dogs are about 1-2 years old or older. So under this bill, working abilities will gradually diminish over successive generations until they fall below the level required to do their jobs - eventually making the working dog extinct.
This bill would not even have been proposed if California dog owners had stood up against SB 861 when it was being debated not long ago. But few of you joined that fight and SB 861 passed (allowing mandatory s/n by breed). It seems that nearly all dog owners expect somebody else to take up the charge and defend their rights. If ALL OF US do not fight it, then we will be a party to the damage that will ensue.
