You pet shops, veterinary clinics and similar establishments may have to put up posters on their premises that facilitate and encourage the adoption of domestic animals. O Bill 50/19 that provides for the measure was approved this Thursday (16) by the Chamber of Deputies, and will now go to the Senate for analysis.
According to the approved text, the poster must contain the name of the institution responsible for the offer (NGO or animal advocate), telephone number and e-mail for contact and information on the importance of responsible adoption of animals and its benefits.
The animals must be delivered for adoption vaccinated and dewormed, with the costs being borne by the adopters or the institutions responsible for the adoption.
According to the author of the proposal, deputy Fred Costa (Patriota-MG), the objective is to reduce the number of animals abandoned on the streets, subject to human violence, the incidence of zoonoses and traffic accidents.
