Game show host and animal rights advocate , Bob Barker, talks to the media about AB-1634 -Levine, during a news conference supporting the bill at the State Capitol, Monday July 9, 2007. The bill would require dog and cat owners to spay or neuter their pets. Newly retired game show host Bob Barker lobbied at the Capitol on Monday in favor of controversial legislation, Assembly Bill 1634, to require spaying or neutering of cats and dogs. Our country, if it is to be considered civilized, needs to protect all living things - including animals, said Barker, who taped his final episode of The Price is Right last month. Supporters say that about 500,000 unwanted pets are euthanized annually and that mandatory sterilization would reduce that number. Opponents, known as PetPAC, held a dueling press conference Monday to unveil two TV advertisements that will be aired on Sacramento broadcast - ZUMA 20080302_bat_s76_490
