Breeder licensing in California
California does not issue a state breeder license, but statutory duties attach if you 3 or more litters or 20 or more dogs (sold, transferred, or given away in the preceding 12 months) in a twelve-month period.
No state issues a breed-specific breeder license, and a state license never replaces a USDA license or local zoning.
