HB 1451, commercial breeder bill,
http://www.legis.state.tx.us/BillLookup/History.aspx?LegSess=82R&Bill=HB1451 This bill has had a committee hearing but got hammered, is in re-write for a committee substitute if it gets another shot. Language that hurt most hunters has been taken out. Working dog exemption language sent to aid writing the bill.
HB 998, insurance bill,
http://www.legis.state.tx.us/BillLookup/History.aspx?LegSess=82R&Bill=HB998 this bill has gotten a lot of heat and has not had a committee hearing, looks to be going no where.
HB 2116, Restraint and kennel and breeder bill,
