What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Current law requires certain persons who sell dogs or operate animal shelters

and all persons who operate animal control facilities to be licensed by the

Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection. An animal control

facility is a facility for the care of animals operated under a contract with a city,

village, town, or county (political subdivision). Persons who are required to be

licensed must comply with standards of animal care that are specified in the law.

This bill creates an exception to the licensing requirement for a person who

operates an animal control facility under a contract with one or more political

subdivisions if the animal control facility operates under a kennel license issued by

the political subdivision in which the animal control facility is located.
