We introduced the PUPPS Act to shut down America's puppy pipeline to research labs.
A White Coat Waste Project investigation found Oak Hill Genetics, the nation's second-largest lab dog supplier, shipped 1,518 hound dogs to 44 U.S. laboratories in just 18 months. Many of those labs still receive NIH funding, meaning taxpayers are footing the bill.
Our bill bans breeding dogs for research, cuts off the supply, and imposes civil penalties of up to $10,000 per dog, or $40,000 for repeat offenders.
End the cruelty.
