PHOENIX, ARIZ. — Kennel operators will be required to microchip all dogs over the age of 3 months in order to get a kennel permit in Arizona if new legislation is passed by lawmakers.

House Bill 2431 was introduced Jan. 19 and would exempt nonprofit pounds, humane societies and animal rescue organizations from the new requirement.
