I'll just repeat what I wrote on the other forum -
I was rather surprised by this because I thought it was ALREADY outlawed here in CA. I haven't seen dogs or cats for sale here at any pet shop or mall shop since the late 80s.
Even the petcos/petsmarts and local dog/cat food supply shops only work with rescues already.
I like the idea behind it to promote people adopting but I think it may be a bit misguided and people shouldn't be restricted from buying a pure breed if that's what they want. However CA loves to put laws on every and anything /shrug
Backyard breeders and mills have always sold on CL and will continue to do so as long as people are willing to support/buy from them, sadly.
