Summary

Existing law establishes procedures, as administered by the State Department of Public Health, for the care and maintenance of pets boarded at a pet boarding facility, including, but not limited to, sanitation, provision of enrichment for the pet, health of the pet, and safety. Existing law similarly regulates the sale of dogs by pet breeders. This bill would require a dog trainer, as defined, to disclose in writing to a purchaser of dog training services at the time of purchase, any civil judgments related to the dog trainer's services, and any criminal animal cruelty convictions against the dog trainer or an employee, as specified. The bill would require the dog trainer and the purchaser to sign the written disclosure. The bill would expressly authorize a person to bring a civil action for damages arising from a violation of the requirements related to that written disclosure.
