§ 19353 Pet Food Slaughter Rules

• •Only certain animals can be killed for pet food: horses, mules, burros, cattle, sheep, goats, and pigs.
• •This can only happen at a place that is officially a pet food slaughterer.
• •The law does not allow other animals to be used for pet food in this way.

A farm wants to use old cows to make dog food.

The farm can do this only if it is a licensed pet food slaughterer. They cannot use chickens or other animals not listed in the law.
