I spoke to the representative of the chair and she said all that would be needed was an email or letter to the chairman. She would then distribute all comments to the committee. I also asked her what the buzz was on this bill and she said it was too early to tell, but she didn't think it had much to offer. She said I could call back after Friday's committee meeting and she would tell me more.
Keep up the pressure, don't let this fall into line like so many bills have in the past.
Even if you don't own or never want to own a dog, please consider taking a few moments to send one email to the chairman listed in Adam's post.
Thank You!
Jim Smith
