A Florida senator filed a bill that included a proposal that would make it illegal to let a dog stick its head out of a window of a moving car. But after getting feedback on that proposal, she reportedly plans to remove that ban from the legislation.
News4JAX spoke last week with Dr. Christian Broadhurst, a veterinarian at the Clay County Humane Society, about the legislation, which is called the Animal Welfare bill.
Broadhurst says the part of the proposal that he applauds the most is the declawing of cats, Broadhurst says declawing has no benefits to cats but is usually done to protect the owner’s furniture. “For me, the declawing is something that’s much more — when reading that bill, I was actually very impressed by that,” Broadhurst said. “Declawing is something where I believe we’re the only western country that declaws cats or allows it in some places.”In addition, the bill proposes prohibiting the sale of rabbits “in specified locations and during specified months.”There’s also a companion bill in the Florida House,Copyright 2023 by WJXT News4JAX - All rights reserved.
