(b) A veterinarian, pet shop, or other person or business entity that accepts deceased companion animals for cremation through services obtained from a provider on a regular basis shall make available a copy of the provider's written explanation of services to each animal owner, or person making arrangements on the owner's behalf, from whom a deceased companion animal is accepted.
(c) It is sufficient for compliance with this Section that a copy of the written explanation of services is given to the animal owner, or the person making arrangements on the owner's behalf, at the time the services are offered.
