- End housing discrimination based solely on a dog's size, weight, or perceived breed
- Support and strengthen the state's veterinary workforce and access to care
- Expand pet ownership for older adults in state-aided public housing
- Modernize dog licensing and kennel oversight
TAKE ACTION: Send a message to the conference committee, urging them to adopt and advance all provisions of The PETS Act.
