Establishes standards for animal boarding facilities

This bill creates new regulations for animal boarding facilities in New York State, requiring them to obtain annual licenses from the Department of State and undergo regular inspections. It applies to for-profit businesses that care for dogs, cats, or other companion animals for boarding or training purposes, while excluding pet day care, veterinary clinics, and animal shelters. The law mandates detailed recordkeeping, specific housing standards, and animal care protocols, with licensing fees of $150 and provisions for license suspension or revocation in cases of violations or non-compliance. Facilities must display their license prominently and provide the department with access for both scheduled and unannounced inspections.
