This is a happy new year gift to pets. The banning of third party sales of pets blocks puppy mills (and other pet breeders). It stops them from breeding and selling quantities of animals that are raised in terrible conditions. People will now have to buy direct from the breeder. If the breeder has to sell directly then they can be monitored and inspected.

No doubt unscrupulous breeders will still try to find ways around these rules, but it won't be as easy to exploit animals.
Females will be freed from bearing litter after litter until they are discarded. It is going to take more work to break the puppy mill cycle, it can be done. Educating the public will help, but this law goes way past that in one quick step. We can catch the public up about why the law exists after the fact.
