David replied to the topic Who do I mail the application to? in the forum California 10 years, 8 months ago
You should have gotten your application from your environmental health dept, and that’s where you’d send it. This is the first line in the Business section on the CA law page… please let me know if there’s a way you think I could make it more clear.

Hi, anyone own a pet? If so, what county are you in? It (rules) appears to differ from one county to another or am I mistaken?

I have not heard of a county having pet rules (other than the standard rule that they are not allowed to be in the kitchen while processing). Have you heard otherwise?

Yes, this is correct for direct sales only. However, some counties are taking awhile implementing this change. For your indirect sales, the rules haven’t changed.
