Nevada Revised Statutes as well as Nevada Administrative Code details laws for retailers and dealers selling dogs. NRS 574.360 plus following sections of the law outline general provisions for care of animals.

Among the information To must supply to obtain her kennel license is a plan worked out with a veterinarian to establish and maintain a program to control disease. Every dog must be examined by a veterinarian before it is sold and all immunizations and other medical information must be disclosed to the buyer.

Dogs with communicable diseases such as kennel cough and more serious conditions must be kept separate from other dogs.

Zervantian is treating one puppy brought to her by a customer of Country Pets for parasites; however, that is not a condition listed in the NRS that requires quarantine.

It appears To has two workers at this time and has spend a goodly amount of money moving her shop from Las Vegas to Pahrump. A kennel license is $60 if all the conditions of the law can be met.
