The Honorable Matthew J. Muzic
Holmes County Prosecuting Attorney
164 East Jackson Street
Millersburg, Ohio 44654
SYLLABUS:                            2024-001
1. Pursuant to R.C. 955.50(A), a dog
under the age of eight weeks old can-
not be sold, offered for sale, or ex-
posed for sale if the dog is to then be
resold or placed in retail commerce.
2. R.C. 955.50(A) does not apply to high
volume dog breeders as defined in
R.C. Chapter 956 if the high volume
dog breeder is selling dogs directly to
consumers.
3. Because R.C. 955.50(A) directly pro-
hibits both the sale and certain activ-
ities that occur prior to the sale of a
dog, and because the statute does not
mention payment, whether payment
is made does not impact the applica-
bility of this statute.
