Animal Control
By Three Crazy Dogs | May 11, 2009
Continuation from the previous post of goats.
DB placed a called to the city’s Animal Control (AC). First was to ask about Chase’s dog license. The city ordinance that I pulled up from the website says, quote from the city’s ordinance:
Except as otherwise provided, no person shall keep any animal other than a household pet within the City. No more than two (2) dogs over the age of four (4) months shall be maintained at any one residence or premises.
It says right there “No more than two dogs….”, well, we are definitely over the limit. DB called AC, placed a message on their voicemail on Friday asking if we need to apply for domestic kennel application where it will allow 3 or not more than 6 dogs. They finally called today.
All turns out well. The above stated quote ordinance was old. They have not updated the site yet. WTH?? Anyways, we can apply for a regular dog license like what we did for the other boys. Cool right there.
Next, DB asked was about the neighborhood goats. The AC guy said depending on where we are, yes, goats are allowed in the city of XYZ. If we are at the south of the city (I have no idea where south of the city is), farm animals are allowed as pets. DB gave him the cross roads of where we live. The guy said where we live, no, farm animals are not allowed. But the AC don’t get any complains. He even said that there are reports that some residents (north of the city) are raring chickens, too. Great, huh?
DB didn’t tell the AC guy which house has the goats, but he thanked him for returning his call and the information.
The mehhhhh-ing is still going on. DB said he might have to call AC in the near future to report that fateful home about the noise from their goats. That mehhhhh-ing souds so pitiful, as if these two goats are suffering. They are tied up with a rope. Hate to see animals tied up. Will see how DB’s mood is!
