A person may not advertise for sale, sell or exchange for value more than one cat or dog in a 12-month period unless that person has a valid animal shelter, kennel, breeding kennel or pet shop license or a valid vendor's license issued under this section. A person possessing a vendor's license issued under this section must include that vendor's license number in any form of advertising, brochure or sign that announces the availability of a dog or cat for sale or exchange. The vendor's name and license number must be provided to a person purchasing or otherwise receiving a dog or cat from the vendor. Not only is a license required – except as stated in the first paragraph above – but, the vendor’s license number must be included in advertising (see paragraph two above).
