AZ SB1483

Prohibits pet stores and dealers from obtaining or selling dogs and cats from breeders licensed by the USDA if the breeder lacks current USDA licensing or committed a direct violation of USDA pet dealer regulations within five years.

Extends the violation lookback period from two years to five years for direct violations of USDA pet dealer regulations.

Requires pet stores and dealers to submit USDA inspection reports to the Arizona Department of Agriculture within 30 days before ordering dogs or cats, and reports must be dated within one year of the order.

Increases civil penalties for second or subsequent violations within five years to $2,500 per violation and removes the three-violation threshold that previously imposed $5,000 penalties and sales injunctions.

Allows any person in Arizona to seek injunctive relief against pet stores or dealers violating these prohibitions and designates violations as unlawful practices enforceable by the Arizona Attorney General.
