The HAPPY Act was: http://www.dogchannel.com/dog-news/2009 … -care.aspx
Pet care expenses would be tax-deductible under a new measure recently introduced by U.S. Representative Thaddeus McCotter (R-MI).
H.R. 3501, commonly referred to as the Humanity and Pets Partnered Through the Years (HAPPY) Act, would amend the Internal Revenue Code to allow an individual to deduct up to $3,500 for “qualified pet care expenses.”
