      By Mr. SANTORUM (for himself, Mr. Durbin, Mr. Warner, Mr. Smith 
        of New Hampshire, Mr. Levin, Mr. Miller, Mr. Lieberman, Mr. 
        Breaux, and Mr. Kennedy):
  S. 1478. A bill to amend the Animal Welfare Act to improve the 
treatment of certain animals, and for other purposes; to the Committee 
on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry.
  Mr. SANTORUM. Madam President, I rise today to introduce the Puppy 
Protection Act of 2001. Introduction of this legislation comes as a 
continuation of my interest in the protection and humane treatment of 
animals, specifically, dogs and puppies. In short, the Puppy Protection 
Act will crack down on breeders who are negligent in their 
responsibilities of breeding dogs in a healthy and humane environment, 
already required by law.
  Across the United States, there are more than 3,000 commercial dog 
breeding facilities that are licensed to operate by the United States 
Department of Agriculture. Owners of these facilities are required to 
comply with the rules and regulations of the Animal Welfare Act, AWA, 
which sets forth standards for humane handling and treatment. 
Inspection, to ensure compliance with AWA standards, is performed by 
the USDA.
  The shortcomings of this system, however, have been: One, inadequate 
resources to perform timely and routine inspections, and two, too few 
tools to assess the proper care and handling of dogs in federally-
licensed kennels. My interest and action over the course of several 
years speaks to both issues.
  Earlier this year, I spearheaded an effort with my Senate colleagues 
to increase the appropriation for USDA to enforce the AWA. One problem 
has been too few resources, approximately 80 inspectors, to inspect 
nearly 10,000 USDA federally-licensed facilities. Adequate resources 
for inspection will go a long way in ensuring strong enforcement.
  Introduction of the Puppy Protection Act addresses the second concern 
of too few tools to assess the proper care and treatment of animals in 
commercial breeding facilities. Let me be clear, there are many 
responsible breeders throughout the United States who exercise 
appropriate care and judgment in their breeding practices. This bill is 
not intended to be punitive to those breeders. This bill will, however, 
crack down on facilities where even the most basic of needs required by 
law are not being met.
  The term ``puppy mill'' is not new to many people, be it pet owners; 
consumers; animal welfare advocates; inspectors; or just a casual 
observer. Puppy mills are considered to be large breeding operations 
that mass produce puppies for commercial sale with little regard for 
the humane handling and treatment of the dogs. Breeding and raising 
dogs without respect to the animal's welfare guarantees bad results for 
the unwitting owner, and for the health of the dog and her puppies.
  For dogs, puppy mill conditions can mean overcrowded cages; lack of 
protection from weather conditions; overbreeding; lack of veterinary 
care; and lack of interaction with humans at early stages. What this 
could mean for the consumer is caring for a pet with developmental 
problems, such as aggressive behavior or anxiety, and various physical 
difficulties that require extensive and costly medical attention.
  My interest and involvement in this matter stem from the regrettable 
circumstance of Pennsylvania being home to many large scale commercial 
breeding facilities operating like puppy mills. On a State level, 
Pennsylvania has been active, and has made gains in the area of public 
awareness and education, and stronger enforcement through increased 
inspection. What the Puppy Protection Act focuses on is the role of 
Federal inspectors, and the tools they have to enforce the Animal 
Welfare Act.
  Specifically, this bill will make the following important changes: 
One, creates a ``three strikes and you're out'' enforcement policy for 
animal welfare violations, such as a lack of food or water or basic 
veterinary care; two, addresses the need for breeding females to be 
given time to recover between litters since currently there are no 
protections against over-breeding, which causes physical hardship for 
females and may compromise the health of puppies; and three, requires 
that new puppies have adequate interation with other dogs and with 
people, enhancing their well-being and helping to minimize behavioral 
problems faced by pet owners. I believe these changes will go a long 
way in cracking down on negligent and irresponsible breeding activities 
that have long-lasting impacts for owners and their pets alike.
  I am pleased to have Senator Durbin join me in introducing this 
important bill. I ask unanimous consent to have the list of some 827 
organizations nationwide who support this bill printed in the Record.
  There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in
