Pet retailers in Frisco operate under FMC Chapter 6 plus state Health and Safety Code rules. Frisco does not currently ban commercial sales of dogs and cats but requires sourcing, recordkeeping, and sanitary conditions, with periodic inspections by Animal Services.
Frisco Municipal Code Chapter 6 covers commercial pet dealers, kennels, and grooming shops. Retailers must keep records on each animal including breeder source, age, and health treatments and present them on demand. Texas Occupations Code Chapter 802 layers in the Licensed Breeders Act for large breeders. While cities like San Antonio have banned retail dog and cat sales, Frisco has not adopted that ban. Stores must meet sanitation, ventilation, cage size, and disease-control standards and submit to inspection by Frisco Animal Services. Sick animals must be isolated and treated.
Operating without proper records, selling sick animals, or violating cage standards triggers citations, license suspension, and shelter seizure of stock until conditions are corrected.
