Crime Of Cruelty To Certified Police Working Horse

Current law includes a separate crime for cruelty to a service animal or a certified police working dog. The bill adds a definition for 'certified police working horse' to statute and adds certified police working horses to the crime of cruelty to a service animal or a certified police working dog. A person who, in good faith, reports an incident of cruelty to a certified police working horse is granted the same immunity from civil liability that persons have when reporting, in good faith, cruelty to a service animal or a certified police working dog. (Note: This summary applies to the reengrossed version of this bill as introduced in the second house.) Read More
