Do you think there should be a law on fixing pets?

In South Carolina, every cat or dog that is brought to a shelter of any kind for any reason (including lost) must be spayed/neutered before leaving. Proof that the animal is a registered breed animal is the only exception.

I'd have to say no... And, not because I don't think there are too many un-wanted animals out there, and WAY too many byb's, but to the fact that I show my dogs; and fully intend on breeding them in the future. And I wouldn't like a law telling me I couldn't, when I've done all the hard work; testing that needs to be done to improve the breed. If there were a way to distinguish the BAD breeders from the GOOD breeders, then I'd be all for it. But for there to be some 'blanket law' that says EVERYONE must neuter/spay their animals, then no, I wouldn't support it.

Well that would be part of the law I would imagine, would be having to have a license to breed etc, so I don't think that would apply
