The American Kennel Club (AKC), our more than 5,000 dog clubs, and millions of responsible dog owners and enthusiasts throughout America, request your support for several bipar­tisan bills before Congress that promote responsible dog ownership and use proven science to ensure that dogs (and those who love them) can stay safe and healthy.

These bills include:

• The “Healthy Dog Importation Act” (H.R. 4239/S. 2597)
• The “Pets Belong With Families Act” (HR 5828)
• The “Paws Off” Act (HR 5261)
• The National Service Animals Memorial Act (H.R. 6353/S. 3447)
• APHIS Animal Welfare Act (AWA) enforcement funding
   

The American Kennel Club thanks the bill sponsors for their leadership in advancing legislation that recog­nizes the contribution of service animals and advances the health and well-being of all dogs.
