At present, Taipei has a specific pet industry license, and 42 companies legally sell dogs. There are generally more than 300 other pet businesses. In order to inspect and ban illegal dog trafficking, the Animal Protection Department has drawn up the "Annual Action Plan for Inspection of Illegal Pet Breeders in Taipei 100", which was implemented from April to February this year 12, targeting relevant businesses with or without specific pet business licenses, as well as illegal dog traders in Holiday Flower Market, Shilin Night Market, Guangzhou Street Night Market, Tonghua Street Night Market and Raohe Street.

If dogs and cats sold in this store suffer from diseases such as runny nose, tears, diarrhea, etc., and the store fails to give necessary medical treatment to the injured or sick animals, after on-site pathological and diagnostic reagent diagnosis, it is determined that the veterinarian of the animal protection department has violated the provisions of Item 1 1 of Article 65438 of the Animal Protection Law, and an order of persuasion will be issued on the spot, and improvement will be made within one week.
