Health: emergency services; emergency medical transport and treatment for retired police canines; provide for. Amends sec. 20925 of 1978 PA 368 (MCL 333.20925).

HB 4012 allows ambulances in Michigan to transport injured police dogs or retired police dogs needing emergency veterinary care, provided no human emergencies require immediate transport. It requires a police officer to accompany the dog during transport and defines "retired police dog" as a dog retired due to age or disease after law enforcement service. The bill directly affects police departments, ambulance services, and veterinary facilities by clarifying ambulance protocols for these animals. It amends Michigan's Public Health Code to ensure such transport is permitted under specific conditions without prioritizing human emergencies. The bill passed the Michigan House with 61-43 support in September 2025.
