Image Credit: Colorado Sun</figcaption></figure> 1487</div> 1488 1489 1490<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Pet stores in Colorado will not be able to sell cats and dogs starting next year under a law signed re
1490cently by Gov. Jared Polis.</p> 1491 1492 1493 1494<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Supporters hope House Bill 26-1011 will reduce demand for high-volume commercial breeders, sometimes referred to as puppy mills, and encourage would-be pet owners to consider adopting from a shelter or rescue. Over two dozen Colorado cities have similar ordinances in effect.</p> 1495 1496 1497 1498<p class="wp-block-paragraph">âPet stores can still thrive. Communities can still connect with animals, but the pipeline that brought suffering into our state ends here and ends today,â said House Majority Leader Monica Duran, a Wheat Ridge Democrat who sponsored the bill.</p> 1499 1500 1501 1502<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The legislation is also known as the âPistol the Pomeranian Protection Act,â named after Duranâs dog that came from a puppy mill and died in October. </p> 1503 1504 1505 1506<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Duran has championed efforts to strengthen rules and oversight around pet stores throughout her time in the House, including in 2021.</p> 1507 1508 1509 1510<p class="wp-block-paragraph">âWe have seen the reports. We have seen sick puppies. We have seen families walk into stores believing they are supporting responsible practices, only to learn later that they financed cruelty and puppies were shipped from out of state,â Duran said during debate on the bill in February. âIf stronger standards alone worked, wouldnât it already have worked?â</p> 1511 1512 1513 1514<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Five adoptable puppies from Human Colorado, named after characters in the Bridgerton book and television series, joined Polis and supporters for the bill signing, as did the governorâs beloved dog Gia.</p> 1515 1516 1517 1518<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Coloradans will still be able to buy pets directly from a breeder, who can provide information about a dogâs parentage and genetics. Pet stores can also partner with rescue organizations to have adoption events, but they could not source puppies from brokers and sell them at a profit.</p> 1519 1520 1521 1522<p class="wp-block-paragraph">âSome people want a purebred or specific breed, there are many wonderful, legitimate breeders in our state, or people that you know have a litter of dogs in their home and they sell them, and thatâs wonderful,â Polis said Wednesday.</p> 1523 1524 1525 1526<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Seven pet stores in Colorado sell dogs and cats, according to licensing data from the Colorado Department of Agriculture.</p> 1527 1528 1529 1530<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Rep. Karen McCormick of Longmont said that in her work as a veterinarian, she treats dogs from puppy mills that end up having a long list of medical issues the owners did not predict or prepare for.</p> 1531 1532 1533 1534<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Critics of the policy saw it as anti-business and warned that it could inadvertently create a black market for puppies in the state. The Rocky Mountain Pet Dealers Association, the Colorado Federation of Dog Clubs and Owners, and the Flatirons Kennel Club all opposed the bill. </p> 1535 1536 1537 1538<p class="wp-block-paragraph"></p> 1539 1540 1541 <div class=" 1542 mailpoet_form_popup_overlay 1543 mailpoet_form_overlay_animation_slideup 1544 mailpoet_form_overlay_animation 1545 "></div> 1546 <div 1547 id="mp_form_popup1" 1548 class=" 1549 mailpoet_form 1550 mailpoet_form_popup 1551 mailpoet_form_position_ 1552 mailpoet_form_animation_slideup 1553 " 1554 > 1555 1556 <style type="text/css"> 1557 #mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_form { } 1558#mp_form_popup1 form { margin-bottom: 0; } 1559#mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_column_with_background { padding: 0px; } 1560#mp_form_popup1 .wp-block-column:first-child, #mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_form_column:first-child { padding: 0 20px; } 1561#mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_form_column:not(:first-child) { margin-left: 0; } 1562#mp_form_popup1 h2.mailpoet-heading { margin: 0 0 12px 0; } 1563#mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_paragraph { line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 20px; } 1564#mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_segment_label, #mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_text_label, #mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_textarea_label, #mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_select_label, #mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_radio_label, #mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_checkbox_label, #mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_list_label, #mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_date_label { display: block; font-weight: normal; } 1565#mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_text, #mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_textarea, #mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_select, #mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_date_month, #mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_date_day, #mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_date_year, #mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_date { display: block; } 1566#mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_text, #mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_textarea { width: 200px; } 1567#mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_checkbox { } 1568#mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_submit { } 1569#mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_divider { } 1570#mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_message { } 1571#mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_form_loading { width: 30px; text-align: center; line-height: normal; } 1572#mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_form_loading > span { width: 5px; height: 5px; background-color: #5b5b5b; }#mp_form_popup1{border-radius: 3px;background: #27282e;color: #ffffff;text-align: left;}#mp_form_popup1{width: 600px;max-width: 100vw;}#mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_message {margin: 0; padding: 0 20px;} 1573 #mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_validate_success {color: #00d084} 1574 #mp_form_popup1 input.parsley-success {color: #00d084} 1575 #mp_form_popup1 select.parsley-success {color: #00d084} 1576 #mp_form_popup1 textarea.parsley-success {color: #00d084} 1577 1578 #mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_validate_error {color: #cf2e2e} 1579 #mp_form_popup1 input.parsley-error {color: #cf2e2e} 1580 #mp_form_popup1 select.parsley-error {color: #cf2e2e} 1581 #mp_form_popup1 textarea.textarea.parsley-error {color: #cf2e2e} 1582 #mp_form_popup1 .parsley-errors-list {color: #cf2e2e} 1583 #mp_form_popup1 .parsley-required {color: #cf2e2e} 1584 #mp_form_popup1 .parsley-custom-error-message {color: #cf2e2e} 1585 #mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_paragraph.last {margin-bottom: 0} @media (max-width: 500px) {#mp_form_popup1 {background: #27282e;animation: none;border: none;border-radius: 0;bottom: 0;left: 0;max-height: 40%;padding: 20px;right: 0;top: auto;transform: none;width: 100%;min-width: 100%;}} @media (min-width: 500px) {#mp_form_popup1 {padding: 0px;}} @media (min-width: 500px) {#mp_form_popup1 .last .mailpoet_paragraph:last-child {margin-bottom: 0}} @media (max-width: 500px) {#mp_form_popup1 .mailpoet_form_column:last-child .mailpoet_paragraph:last-child {margin-bottom: 0}} 1586 </style> 1587 1588 <form 1589 target="_self" 1590 method="post" 1591 action="https://afrikdigest.com/wp-admin/admin-post.php?action=mailpoet_subscription_form" 1592 class="mailpoet_form mailpoet_form_form mailpoet_form_popup" 1593 novalidate 1594 data-delay="10" 1595 data-exit-intent-enabled="" 1596 data-trigger-mode="auto" 1597 data-click-trigger-selector="" 1598 data-font-family="Fira Sans" 1599 data-cookie-expiration-time="7" 1600 > 1601 <input type="hidden" name="data[form_id]" value="1" /> 1602 <input type="hidden" name="token" value="f190584966" /> 1603 <input type="hidden" name="api_version" value="v1" /> 1604 <input type="hidden" name="endpoint" value="subscribers" /> 1605 <input type="hidden" name="mailpoet_method" value="subscribe" /> 1606 1607 <label class="mailpoet_hp_email_label" style="display: none !important;">
