To change the requirements of dog breeding operations

HB 3132 sets new requirements for commercial dog breeders in West Virginia, defined as those maintaining 11 or more unsterilized dogs over one year for breeding. It mandates annual permits with county-set fees (capped at $350 for smaller "Class I" operations and $750 for larger "Class II" operations), with funds directed to animal shelters and spay/neuter programs. Breeders must obtain annual vet certifications for breeding females, maintain rabies certificates for all dogs, include permit numbers in advertisements and on cages, and provide written buyer disclosures. The bill directly affects commercial breeders operating at scale, aiming to standardize care and transparency in dog sales.
