Can't make up a set of rules, and breeders that don't respect them don't get to send their pets to Californian stores? Or put it differently: force pet stores

Can't make up a set of rules, and breeders that don't respect them don't get to send their pets to Californian stores?
Or put it differently: force pet stores in California to sell only pets that were treated humanly.

I think the weak federal rules that are referenced in the story here are preemptive, so, it's quite possible that California can't adopt stricter rules. In any case, it's a lot easier to enforce a “sell from shelters only” rule than one that requires state enforcement of standards on out-of-state suppliers.
