e/Hayden Law

Information
has gloss	eng: The "Hayden Law" is a law named after the California State Senator Tom Hayden, who sponsored the bill. It is often referred to as Senate Bill 1785 or SB 1785 . This legislation made animal shelters in California more accountable and gave the public longer to find their lost animals before they were euthanized. It mandated more "work friendly" hours to the public for going to the shelters, and after a few years of the law being in place (July 1, 2001), began offering owner-surrendered animals the same amount of time (four to six business days, not including the day of impoundment) to remain alive before being eligible for euthanasia.
