Fiscal Detail and Notes
Requiring veterinarians to notify municipalities of rabies vaccinations of dogs is likely to result in increased dog licensure compliance, thereby increasing the amount of dog licensure revenue dedicated to the Animal Welfare Fund within the Department of Agriculture, Food and Rural Resources; the amounts will depend on the licensure enforcement efforts of municipalities and can not be determined at this time.
