From shannonldillon at gmail.com Thu Mar 1 12:50:50 2018 From: shannonldillon at gmail.com (Shannon Dillon) Date: Thu, 1 Mar 2018 12:50:50 -0800 Subject: [Cagdu] Hearing on AB 1865 on March 6 9:00 a.m. Message-ID: The hearing on AB-1865 will be on March 6th at 9:00 am in room 126 on the historic side of the Capitol. We recently learned that the ACLU is opposing our bill, and so is the California Public Defenders Association. This means that we need as many dogs present as possible. This includes puppy raisers and all service animals from a recognized training program. We need dogs and people at the hearings. Remember this bill is in our best interest as it will allow for penalties for attacks on any service animal from a recognize school. This also includes puppies in homes for the first part of their training. The law if passed will remove the part of the law that states that our dogs must be in harness when attacked in order to take action. This will bring CA more in compliance with the ADA. The ADA bases service dogs on their training , not their equipment. Please contact me with any questions at 415-218-5862 of shannonldillon at gmail.com. Shannon -- SHANNON L.
