Conroe passes dangerous-dog ordinance

After a dog has been declared dangerous, the ordinance requires the owner to spay or neuter the animal, register the dog with animal control and have a microchip tag implanted, and provide a secure enclosure. The enclosure or kennel must be 9-gauge chain-linked fence with walls at least 8 feet tall, covered with a top or roof and have a concrete flooring 4 inches thick. The enclosure also should have an automatic closing and latching mechanism and a lock. Also, dangerous dog signs must be posted and visible from each street providing access the owner's property. When the dog is not in an enclosure, it must be muzzled and held on a leash more than 6 feet long by a person 18 or over. The city also can fine owners $500 if their dog is declared dangerous and has injured a person or animal. The same dogs would be DEAD in Baltimore. No provisions for being able to keep a vicious dog. -- Janet Boss www.bestfriendsdogobedience.com |
