We're our own worst problem

 There is an exemption for breeds who are used as herding/hunting/tracking dogs. Right??

[Txmason]

Yes, for now there is an exemption for hunting and working dogs.  It all spelled out in the bill but exemptions can be changes any time.


Just like there is no written law stating you can hunt hogs with dogs, also there isn't a law saying you can't.

Here is the link to the proposed wording for The "Dog Breeder License" (HB1451). I encourage all of you to read the whole thing so you will understand what we are in for when they try and remove the hunting dog exemption.

This has passed and is now Texas Law. There is a hunting dog exemption, but that exemption can be removed at any time. Because this bill contained a hunting/working dog exemption it passed. If the exemption had not been included it would not have passed the Texas Senate. We have got to be careful what we support and what we fight and why.
