NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — In animal hoarding cases, why do the owners usually surrender their animals? How does Tennessee rank nationally when it comes to animal rights? What new animal laws are taking effect July 1, 2026?

On this episode of MorningLine, host Nick Beres welcomes back Attorney Jessica Schultz from Schultz Law to discuss animal law.

NOTE: Concerning the rabies registry, that would be for both dogs and cats. Also, the rabies registry suggestion would be for tracking ownership. They track the tags #’s now but based on county and vet who issued it.
