Well, I've never been all that keen about the public bringing their own animals into a show I paid good money for tables in order to sell my animals anyway. I think this would be excellent cause for show promoters to just prohibit walkins from bringing in animals for any reason.

If someone comes up to your table to try to sell you an animal, just contact the show staff to have the agent, er 'person', escorted out the door.

So let me run this by you all. If a person buys an animal from you at a show, then an hour later comes back, for whatever reason, wanting to return the animal to you, would you be in legal jeopardy doing so if the customer does not have a permit? In effect, you are buying back that animal from the customer.

And why would the buyer get introuble if he HAS a CLASS III permit? It would seem to me that the only one that would get busted should BE the PERSON Trying to SELL the animals in this case THE OFFICER since he stated he didn't have a permit.
This is a good point. I don't believe I have ever seen any statute that said it was permissible for any authority agency to break the law in order to enforce the law.
