And then came Harrison, NY…

At the July 21, 2016 Public Hearing, the Town of Harrison unanimously passed a law banning the sale of commercially bred dogs and cats.
Harrison became the 3rd municipality in New York State to pass this ground-breaking law initiated first by Mamaroneck, NY.  Similar to Mamaroneck and Mt. Pleasant, Harrison’s law allows for Pet Stores to sell dogs or cats that were obtained only from “…an animal shelter or a humane society located in the County of Westchester, or a nonprofit rescue and humane organization registered with the New York State Department of Agriculture.”
