Nationwide study flags regulatory violations by dog breeders
An Iowa nonprofit study audits the commercial dog breeding and sales industry, finding that over half of breeders and brokers supplying retail stores incurred state or federal violations in the past five years. The analysis covers licensed breeders, brokers, online sellers, and third party brokers, with Iowa figures showing 33 percent of licensed entities cited in five years. The work aims to map progress and guide legislation on animal welfare.
